when i looked around, the world couldn't be found, just me by the sea*
High points at Padre Island:
*Being with my amazing daughter and my precious niece
*turkey pannini from Jason's Deli
*communion on the beach with my girls
*sitting in folding chairs, in the water, as the waves come in
*driving on the beach...couldn't believe that one...you just park like 20 feet from the water..so cool..
*watching a very patient father teach his little boy how to surf....mindful of my Father who gently helps me back on the board when I keep falling off..
*long walk to the pier and chance meetings with families, children and dogs...lots of smiles
*being enveloped by warm blue green water
*slight chill from sun kissed skin while eating a yummy hamburger at Chilis
I love the ocean..shh..don't tell but its like the place where I think God most likes to hang out.

I agree with you about the ocean. I really, really miss living in Corpus Christi, when I would take my two little ones to Rockport every week in the summer to play at the beach. Rockport is one of my very favorties places.
So glad you had a good time.

I always thought that I was exclusively a mountain person and not the least bit of a beach person. However, we returned yesterday from a trip that may have changed my mind. I think that now, perhaps, I like both.
