Beach and water fun for summer is the theme this week . This brings back memories of “the ole swimming hole” on the farm where I grew up. Two brooks joined in the pasture and made a pool deep enough for Mother to teach us four children to swim. There we cooled off after a day in the hay fields or working in the garden.

On family vacations, we often visited my aunt and uncle and spent a day or two at York Beach, Maine…my aunt’s favorite beach. We had a taste of swimming in salt water and looked forward to this experience each summer.
I have photos to accompany these memories and should incorporate them with the stories in a journal, a scrapbook, or a digital scrapbook.
What memories do you have of beach and water fun? What memories are you making with your children?
Write these down, combine them with photos, create scrapbooking pages.
