In Crescent City, we found THE BEST play ground we had ever seen.

We just got back from our 10 days on the road down the Oregon Coast to Redding California to visit Devin’s Dad. Every place we stayed had a pool so Jacob got a lot of water time and loved it. He amazed us with how comfortable he is in the water and how brave he got. (Twice he jumped into the pool without a life vest and anybody nearby to catch him and sank to the bottom. Scary!). We had little baby boats and life vests for him to use of which he didn’t really care for. It wasn’t until the last day when we tried the arm floaties…and he did great. He was “swimming” by himself in the hotel pool.
