Day 120: Hampton Beach proceeds to American Cancer Society

Bianca and Olivia here.
We went to Hampton Beach, NH today to spend time with our Long Island cousins Alex and Timmy. They are visiting their Aunt Lisa for the weekend. Lisa, living only ten minutes away from us, invited us along on the trip and we had a nice, long day in the sun. To take a break from the rays, we walked down the strip of shops across from the beach. A music shop was selling old videos (yes, the ones that actually need a VCR to be watched) for a dollar, sending all of the proceeds to the American Cancer Society. The selection was slim, since only videos of live artists' performances were eligible for the fundraiser. I ended up getting a live concert video of Neil Young for dad, since I know he loves his music. The fundraiser seemed pretty popular, since I saw a good chunk of cash in the envelope for the ACS as I was paying! It was a great day on the beach and it was good to find a way to contribute to a worthy and familiar cause in the midst of all our fun.
