Continuing on with this week's Microsoft OneDrive Memories from this Day, which I remember, from a week in August, way back in 2017, several days of which were spent at Birch Bay, a few miles south of Washington's border with British Columbia, Canada.
Whilst the tide was still way out, Theo, Ruby and I started building a sandcastle.
In the above photo, I cannot tell if that is Ruby or Theo shoring up the sandcastle as the tide starts to threaten the wall of our castle.
The Birch Bay tide eventually breeched our wall defenses, after a long, valiant effort.
The morning after sandcastling Theo and I elevatored to the roof of the place in which we were staying.
Theo was quite pleased to see that we could make out the remains of our sandcastle, still visible, after an incoming and now outgoing tide.
You can see those sandcastle remains pretty much at the dead center of the photo documentation.
That week up in Washington, back in 2017, was one of the best times I had had in a long time. From the moment I exited security, at Sea-Tac, to see David, Theo and Ruby, for the first time, and the days which followed, getting to be uncle to kids was something I thought was history, but almost instantly, upon meeting the Tacoma Trio, I found myself in full uncle mode.
I have not seen the Tacoma Trio, or their parental units, since March of 2019, which was another fun week, in Arizona. And then in 2020, COVID hit.
I do not think I have had a mighty fine fun week since COVID, that I remember...
