On Sunday, Kathleen, Bucky and I headed to the beach for the day on Sullivan's Island. Kathleen was eager to try skimboarding or sand skimming or whatever you want to call it...Basically, you throw a thin wooden board onto the shallow water as a wave recesses and then you try and jump on the board. My dad has a board that he made ages ago and Kathleen was dying to try it out. After a few hints from Bucky (who supposedly skimboarded in his day), she threw the board and jumped right on! It was fun to watch her as she threw the board over and over and over again into the water. She got some good rides, fell a couple of times and overall, had a fabulous time! I have a feeling that we will be going to the beach again soon with dad's old skimboard in tow.
