We just had two really great days at the beach. Lincoln City and Newport to be exact. I tell ya, there’s nothing like taking the short drive over, staying at a nice little motel, and relaxing with my sweetie. And, of course, with Weston.
I love being with my little family. We work. The little unit that is us. You know what I mean? We just work. It’s like all the cells in my body relax when we’re together. It’s sometimes almost an audible sound, from deep inside me. I’m sure at the moment I walk into Karen’s presence, I breathe in deeply, then out again, clearing out the day, and taking in the all of just being with her. My body naturally reacting and saying to me, ah, you’ve come home. Life is good.
We had such a great time… walks on the beach watching the water, the clouds moving, and Weston scampering about like a mad man seeking all the fun sand has to offer. We watched movies, read a little, and held hands while looking out the window at the tiny bit of a squall that passed through. We drank chai, walked around on the docks on the bay front in Newport, and laughed as Weston tried to make friends with every person and dog he met. We loved our time and enjoyed being together, sharing every moment.
My advice, not that anyone asked… take off, spend a day or two together. Get away and play. It does a body, a mind, and a soul very very good. All you need… all anyone needs… is a couple of days at the beach.
