it started with waking up early on a Saturday morning it was a pleasant and sunny drive with my first stop at Krispy Kreme it was a blueberry donut and iced coffee it was navigating through a quaint lakeside community until we found the house it was a white house with the same red flowers I planted in my front yard it was on the beach and it was windy it was a trip to the town grocery store it was a sandwich lunch of catching up and getting reacquainted it was laying on the beach in the late afternoon it was goose bumps and wind and sweatshirts it was an evening bbq of pulled pork and lots of strangers it was sitting and talking with sweet elderly folks and it was watching the sunset over the lake wrapped in blankets it was taking pictures of the fireworks on the beach and heading inside before they were over it was fold out couches that pushed us together it was an early morning Tim Horton’s coffee run (my first) it was a home-cooked breakfast of eggs and sausage and fresh cantaloupe, strawberries and blueberries it was putting on bathing suites and heading back to the water it was finishing a very long book and starting another it was jet skiis pulling intertubes and witnessing grandy putting us to shame it was kabobs on the grille for lunch it was sunburns and showers and repacking suitcases it was long hugs and running out the door to catch flights and highways it was a late dinner stop at wendy’s for cheeseburgers and French fries it was unloading the car as the light faded it was picking up the pooch and visiting with our favorite doggie sitters and it was crawling into bed early, exhausted, red and happy.
