Three of my little Coasties...
We spent our Coast Guard Day at Lake Compounce, just as we have all five summers we have spent in Connecticut. Lake Compounce is a locally owned amusement park, complete with a water park, rides, games, food, and the lake of course. It was hot, so the kids spent the first several hours playing in the pool and on the water slides. It was pretty hard having little Katy out in that weather....there was not a place to sit or a patch of shade to be found on the water half. Once we made it over to the amusement park side things were easier. Beth and Matt were big enough to ride a lot of things by themselves this year, so that was nice. As for Carrie, she had Daddy to take her around the park! After many hours of playing in the park, we finished our trip with a big picnic dinner with all the other Coast Guard families. All in all a good day!
