Beach Day

April 11, a good day to finally get to visit the beach. The rain has given us a break and we are ready to soak up some sun and walk in the sand.

Dave and I met by writing letters to each other while he was in the Air Force. He was a roommate with my future brother-in-law.

After my sister and brother-in-law married, I came to visit them in Gulfport, MS for part of the summer. So, on the beach, across the road from their house is where Dave and I got to know each other.

Yes, here we are 53 years later, returning to the scene of that first summer.

It is great to be on the beach.  I love salt water and sand. 

Sugar and Riley are enjoying the day with us.  Happens to be National Pet Day - so they had to pose for their photo.
