| At Dobbin's landing otherwise known as "the dock" the kids had to chase pigeons. The structure being built in the background is our soon-to-be Casino. |

| Kids and pigeons don't seem to ever get cold and Nicole and Jeremy had to "ride" the Sea Lions, but Mary and I were freezing our butts off. |

| After the wind chased us away from Dobbin's Landing, we headed to the other side of the Bay to Presque Isle State Park. It was no warmer there, but the wind wasn't as harsh. And, of course, Jeremy just had to test the water. Ayuh, it was cold! |

| Even the trees were cold |

| The waves break over the breakers that protect the beaches from erosion. Well, they do help somewhat. |

|
| Nicole checks out the big rocks and Jeremy, well, he's down at the shore getting his feet wet again. |
