That's Just Great! (lots of pictures)

We had an amazing time with our holiday together. Some plans fell through, others stayed the same, and some weren't plans at all, but a luxury: a spontaneous day trip to a place we'd never been.
We went clam digging with the Jarvis's for New Years.
Jake's fascination with clams: not so great.
Frying clams in panko: Great.
Allison practicing the perfect circle: Great (never mind the rest).
She drew a perfect... spiral on the otherside.
Praise from mom: Great.
Port Hadlock and Chimacum on a calm winter's day: Great.
The hair acorn not falling far from the tree: not so great (sorry, kid).
Plucky Americana: Great.
"Parking lots:" Great.
Realizing I had a wide angle lens to play with this whole time: it depends on how you look at it.

-Watching a three-year old naturally run like a maniac: Great. She's beautiful at it.-

Exploring with the Navigator,
the Captain,
and the.... Guardian,
Pretty Dang Great.
I think we all could have had a tantrum putting that day to an end: It Was Just Great.
(Though it did break hers and our hearts just a little.)
