We used to go there as a kid for the fireworks and Military band performances on July 4th. I took a summertime "haute couture" modeling class there with Rita Hickok when I was 16. Her mother Peggy would drive us there in her orange sports car with the top down. I guess you and I both have plenty of photos of our grandparents and relatives on the beach there from long ago.

The beach looks like a popular place for families. Those palms are so tall - amazing. I hope all is going well now you're back home especially as you spend time with your mother and the rest of your family.
