The beach is one of my favorite places on this beautiful earth. It holds so many wonderful memories that are dear to my heart. Memories of family vacations with grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins....memories of "summer loves" as a teenager, memories of my own child's first trip to the beach at 6 months old, memories of laughter and tears, memories of late night conversations with family on the balcony of our condo, memories of looking at the stars with my Daddy through his telescope. I could go on and on of what the beach means to me. It is a place to reflect on my life....the good times and bad. It is a place to create new memories. It is a place to let go of all of my cares and just breathe.
Even though our Gulf and it's beaches have been tainted by the oil spill, it's beauty is still breathtaking. God's masterpiece on display for us to enjoy.
