Guides - Del Mar Beach

I have to get better at throwing blog entries out here. Connor and I just had an AWESOME weekend camping on the beach at Del Mar Beach on the Marine base at Camp Pendleton here in north San Diego county. Killer weather, tents were 75 yards from the ocean - couldn't be better.

Some highlights:

• Helicopters on display in the hanger at airfield. Saw "Twin Huey" and Super Cobra (the same kind I fly in Battlefield 2). Pilots for each one were there to answer questions - the boys got to sit in the cockpit of the Huey.
• Shrimp and Tri-Tip Saturday night dinner - those dads went all out
  
• 7am rollout by Marines Sunday morning - Connor was dead asleep, I rallied him to the point of hearing the marine yelling outside our tent to get up and hurry! That was enough - Connor threw on his close, we ran down the beach, did jumping jacks, push-ups, steam engines, and bear crawls across the sand. All to earn the bear claw.
  
• Of course, tons of sun, sand, surf, bocce ball, horseshoes, etc.
• Connor did 6 aims again (twice this time) to earn a shark's tooth on a necklace. Great stuff.
