i was here. today. we often head back to the beach for labor day. it's a great time there. after sunday, the beach is quiet. empty. the restaurants don't have waits. the boardwalk is easy to play on. all the summer people are gone. it's amazing how peaceful it becomes. you have the whole place to yourself. the littles can run up and down the beach - an empty beach. swim in the pool all by themselves. the weather is still great. summer is still here.
i always feel like i'm cheating a bit on fall when we are at the beach this week. stringing summer along for a few more days. but cheat it must be. but not this year. we are at home. big time school started this year. too many commitments, too. so no two beach trips this fall.
so all i can do is look. and wish. and feel the sand between my toes.
