Beach life!

Everyone's been talking about the weather....so unusual for this time of year. It's been so warm that the heat went to my head and my mind began thinking crazy things....like actually going for a swim in the North Sea! This was an almost daily occurence in my youth; down to the beach at 8am and returning home at 9pm...then to be carefully lathered with 'Calamine Lotion' by my mother!

The water today was reasonably cold, but once I got in it was a lovely feeling. Gracie sat on the beach and looked at me as if I was mad. Later on my mind wandered again, back to wonderful beach days like these, and drying off with that great feeling of salt water in your hair and sand between your toes.
