OT: Back at Home, Great Break

Sunset

Just got back a few hours ago from a short break down to the coast here in Texas “ to Port Aransas to be precise.  It was a great little break “ my daughter ‘s first time seeing the sea (or the Gulf anyway), and getting in it, and collecting sea shells, making sandcastles, and all that jazz.  She loved it “ from Minute 1 “ and it was great to see her having a blast.

My wife and I got to swim in a body of water bigger than a pool or lake for the first time in several years “ and it was superb.  It was at the absolute perfect temperature “ warm enough to be easy to get into, but still cold enough to be very refreshing.  And body-surfing level waves every day.  Zero rain, mostly sunny the whole time and not too blazing hot either.

I even managed to stay (almost) entirely offline and disconnected the whole time. And more importantly, feel relaxed and not even think about it.  Never even thought about MMS until a friend sent me a test pic message on our drive back home.

Anyway, back now “ and hoping to resume ‘normal service ‘ tomorrow.  If any of you have a chance to visit Port Aransas, I highly recommend it “ especially the lovely Sandcastle condominiums, right on the beachfront.  We ‘ve been there twice now, and had an excellent experience both times. 

Hope you all had splendid weekends as well.
