Hello, Hello! Today was predicted to be the best Boston-area beach day of our Labor Day long weekend, so I took advantage with a drive to Hampton Beach.... Stayed for about 4 hours, and, yes, it was a perfect beach day. Sunshine, low 80s; the water was warm enough to stay in comfortably, and the waves were great! :) xox
Hold still," my father would say, while I held the ship in the bottle and he burned away the strings he'd raised the mast with and set the clipper ship free on its blue putty sea. And I would wait for him, recognizing the tension of that moment when the world in the bottle depended, solely, on me. ... Wishing you a bless and safe day me sweet friend. xo
