Back to school trip

This location was even better than we had expected. We planned one last trip before school starts to let kids play in the ocean and do a little fishing. Could never imagined we were literally feet away from one of the best times they would ever have. Kids fished from sunup till late in the night. While we were able relax in the shade We were a 5 minutes walk from shore fishing and riding the waves in the gulf
