I went to Topsail North Carolina for Memorial Day weekend. It was so beautiful and was just what I needed. I felt like when I got there I started to shed all of my worries, problems, and anxieties. I could just be there and not have to think about anything. Not that I didn't, but I did try. :)
My friend Lynn was so generous and let me stay at her wonderful beach house with her family. This is the view from the deck. I loved waking up to this every morning.
This is how I spent every day--at the beach. Jack, Lynn's husband, would come out for a few hours and ask when I was coming in. I explained that for me going to the beach is literally being there all day. I think he was a bit surprised. I just love the sound of the water, watching the waves, reading a book, etc. Heaven!
I was trying to hold a door open and the wind came up and slammed the door on my finger. You can't really tell in this picture, but it was black and now (two days later) three fourths of my finger is black. It is doing a lot better and I am typing on my computer so that's great. I have to go back to work tomorrow and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to type.
This is the beach house we stayed in. The great thing was that there wasn't a house on either side of us and it was just lawn. That made it so it felt like we had the beach to ourselves because people typically stay close to their houses so they can go in and out without having to walk far. It was awesome!
