Island Life

You got beat out last night by a walk on the beach and time in the hot tub. Can you blame me? Aunt Sharri and I spent the entire day doing pretty much nothing but sitting out on the deck enjoying the view and talking the day away. It was wonderful for us both who are so habituated in our lives to get things done. It was so nice to slow that down to a measly trickle and simply enjoy the day. We took a walk on the island in the morning. People there still wave to each other and a neighbor will stop in their car to talk with you while the other cars occasionally coming by just wiggle past. The island has a calming affect on me, especially since my Aunt and I got to talk so much. I love sitting outside and watching the water. This morning we saw two seal pups swim past and there is always the sounds of the waves lapping on the shore. Aunt Sharri reminded me how important it is to see the beauty that is all around us. And it is, beauty is pervasive. Beauty and a reason to smile can always be found no matter where we’re at.
