Beach combing

Tomorrow(Friday) is a district closure day for Quilchena and then we move into a long weekend for Victoria Day.  :D Hurray!
The sun is here and we can finally have some warm sunny fun!
I think tomorrow we will go beach combing. We need to pick up some fresh seaweed for our salt water tidal pool anyways.  :D
Indeed we have a tank set up at home and have a hearty group of pacific shore crabs living with us. They are wonderful! We love to watch them climb rocks and eat barnacles and chop the seaweed with their claws. They are amazing creatures! The boys love them!
I will take a few photos of our expedition tomorrow and try to find some large crab shells for the school science centre as well.
Should be fun!
