It is still cool out today, but there is lots of sunshine. I wanted to make a drive to Lovers Key State Park Beach for a few hours, but Gus was not cooperating. We couldn't get him to stop barking, so Jim ended up staying with Gus while I went to the beach alone. It sucks but at least I had the opportunity to spend a little time walking on the beach.
It would have been more fun to have Jim or RuthAnne or Kat or Mary or Sharon A or Marybeth, or any of a number of friends, but it was still a beautiful scene. Instead of having a friend to keep me company, I talked with Jocelyn, one of hundreds of talks we have had in the past 17 years, since she went to be with God. Hard to believe it was almost 17 years ago....seems like only Yesterday! She would have loved to join me on the beach for a long walk and some mother-daughter time.
The walk back to the car provided much scenery of its own, from birds sleeping in the trees to two raccoons crossing the pedestrian bridge headed who knows where.
