But feel the same way about the mountains, I look out my kitchen window and there they are, huge and ancient and magnificent. <br /><br />The only time I feel weird about not being by the water is when I think about it and think that it's weird that I'm not there but here...Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14655101499233442222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787631511810219240.post-15478851373100126072010-07-16T23:12:00.937-04:002010-07-16T23:12:00.937-04:00I'm a Miami native, so the ocean calls to me. ...I'm a Miami native, so the ocean calls to me. Although embarking on a beach trip with the kids makes me think twice, soooo much work with the parking and the packing and the slathering and the trekking.

I miss being surrounded by it from back when I lived in Maine and NH (though some Maine folk had way more of an accent than you.) "Heathahh" was my name in those days...<br /><br />Was that Owen's first caught fish? Was it a sunny? Our old house had a pond behind it, and the summer my kid was 4 we spent hours and hours and hours out there while she caught the same three sunfish over and over and over again. We also were a "catch and release" .... "and recatch" family. Guess our pond's sunnies really liked the worms from our back yard, heh.<br /><br />Enjoy your secret spot of "middle of nowhere"!
