Ray and I went on a road trip yesterday... We just kind of wandered toward the southwest and ended up in a neat little seaside town called Minehead. It was really pretty. The tide was out when we got there, so we could walk a really good distance - several hundred yards - where the ocean would normally come in. That was pretty cool.

We took Abbie with us, and she had a ball! She loves riding in the car. She doesn't care where, just as long as she gets to go somewhere. I think she really enjoyed playing on the beach. And there were so many new smells for her, that she had her nose to the ground for most of the time.

Plus, on the way back, I told the GPS to take us home, but I forgot to tell it to stick to major roads. The result was that we ended up going down dirt roads that were just wide enough for one car, with hedgerows straight up either side, twisting and turning, going up and down. But, as harrowing as the roads were, we saw a bunch of really cool stuff. There were a lot of newborn lambs and a lot of dairy cows and some bird that I couldn't identify, but looked like a game bird. So, we had fun!

One of these days, I will post the Dover pictures, and the couple of shots I took at Minehead.
