Some days, my job is no picnic at the beach.
And some days it is very literally a picnic at the beach.
Stone Gardens Teamed up with Wiggins Place for a day at Mentor Headlands. Many thanks to Tracy and Jenna for making all of the arrangements and bringing the food!

After warnings of thunder storms, the weather turned out to be perfect. We ate in a reserved pavilion, and then set up beach chairs on the sand. Most people walked on their own to the chairs.
Mentor Headlands also provided us with a special beach wheelchair which enabled us to move some of our residents over the sand easily. The chair looks like a funky little dune buggy or moon rover.
A couple of brave residents - one from Wiggins and one from Stone - put their bare feet in the cool waters of Lake Erie.
And here's about 3 minutes of video. The wind made it a little hard to hear some of the audio, but I think you'll get the gist.
