For me,
this is memorable beaches, where I spent evenings watching the sunset, making
sandcastles, and digging for coquina in the wet sand along the shore. Actually,
I don't think I really spent so much time at the beach, as I was growing up,
but it is what I remember, perhaps that is because it was always fun, and
relaxing. Though most of all, since it has been so out of reach, it is what I
miss the most. I had a blast sharing this with the girls. Fun in the sun, and
the sand, looking for shells along the water. All that was missing is the
bucket of fried chicken. Instead, we made a stop at what I think is my favorite
pizza joint, where the pepperoni is crispy and curls up into little cups on
top.
It is memory lane: a drive by the old house(s) where I spent my childhood, and the elementary school. Interesting, but I find no longing to return. I have great memories of my childhood, but that was then. I enjoyed my time, but I don't wish for those days again. I like where I am, and what I have now. I like the changes in myself, and what I have done, and I look forward to whatever lies ahead. So it was nice to visit to some old haunts, but I think visiting is all I want to do. My future lies elsewhere.

Brave souls, this is the beginning of March. Brrr! |
Thia decided to spend her time out of the water. |

Capogna's Dugout hit the spot after a few hours running around in the sand and slatwater! |
