Observations from the Beach

These are in no particular order of observance.

1. Thank you, Jesus! No Speedos in sight!

2. Thank you, Jesus, for sarongs!

3. Speaking of sarongs, I made sure I always wore mine as I was worried about how I looked in a swimsuit - a one-piece swimsuit. I needn't have worried. There were plenty of people who needed a sarong more than I did. (Oh, that's mean of me, isn't it? Sorry).

4. Beach reading can also be called "smut for the shore."

5. My beloved tans at the mere mention of sun.

6. Jellyfish are in pesky abundance.

7. There IS worse traffic than B-town.

8. B-town does not have the market cornered on annoying tourists. Oh wait, I was a tourist. . . .

9. My beloved never fails to make me smile and/or laugh.

10. Sand really gets in everything.

11. Seafood tastes better when eaten near a beach.

12. The beach is better when shared with your beloved.

13. I finally know what it is to truly relax. It's amazing. I highly recommend it to everyone.

14. Several years ago, I saw the mountains and thought how mighty God is. They pale in comparison to the vastness of the ocean, and made Him all the more mighty.

I may have more observances as I remember them.
