Seafoam



"Ski Week”, in colloquial terms is the mid-winter school break, the week after Presidents' Day. Some say the moniker is elitist because the costs for many are prohibitive. Although it is the prime time for snow and going to the mountains, our grandkids, Clementine and Aloysius, discovered that Kehoe Beach was the place to be. The crashing waves of the recent storms along with dissolved organic matter created great puffs of foam. So instead of snow drifts there was abundant seafoam. "Ski Week" is now "Seafoam Week." Plus, with rain still threatening, there were no crowds. The expanse of the ocean and beach was all ours.
