Beauty and the Beach

Sunday morning...what a beautiful weekend this has been. We could not have asked for better weather. Once the rain cleared out yesterday, which was before 9am, the sun came out and shone on the water for the entire day. Temperatures in the 80s and very little humidity.

 It was a great day to just enjoy the view and do nothing. The sun felt great...even sunburned my head a bit. Now, that's a first.

Ken took advantage of the peace and quiet to work on writing some songs and I just enjoyed the water. Not only did it provide a peaceful backdrop to my meandering thoughts but the temperature was perfect as well. Very comforting.

Last night, we grilled a whole tuna. No, we didn't catch it here. It was a frozen souvenir from our Oregon beach vacation last August. We had four of them and thought it was a perfect option to bring to the cabin for one meal. It was delicious and leftovers make great tuna salad. If you've never tried it you can't imagine what you are missing.

It stayed light out until after 9:30 and we enjoyed the water and the peaceful world it creates until the insect population decided to make it clear that it was their turn. Then we just moved our chairs indoors and took advantage of the wall of glass which faces the water.

I expected it to be raining this morning, but it wasn't and isn't. We'll enjoy a few more hours of paradise before we return to the world of Cancer Centers, and life in the fast lane. But the peace and tranquility we were able to capture here will linger as we go back to real life. And, I'm sure that we willl return sooner rather than later. For now, the sun on the water is calling me one last time so I will take advantage of it.

Later.
