Let me take a moment..

To reflect what has kept me away from my poor blog.

Time spent on the southeast coast of Florida. Almost every Friday morning at 6am, you could find me and hubby in line at Midway Airport, trying to be the first on board so we can stow our luggage.  We get up at 3:45am and tear through the house, throwing suitcases in the back of the little car and zoom east toward the airport. It always amazes me how many people are OUT AT THIS HOUR!

Once, we almost missed our flight, due to the traffic!

We make our way towards the ocean, fighting crowds, (and entire families on planes that treat the plane like their family room). 

We virtually run down the gangway to the terminal once we touch down in Florida and the humidity hits like a ton of bricks. The moist air is heavy and it feels like it lubricates the joints. 

It is easy to breathe. The humidity causes even my eyebrow hair to curl and disobey. 

One of the drawbacks, but not enough to stop me!

We search for our rental car in the lot and soon we are headed to our destination. 

My friends here think I'm nuts to jump through all those hoops. 

But we have a spot, where we can check in and walk right thru the lobby to this:

Have you ever just known you were meant to be in a place?

I never have. 

Until I walked onto this beach. 

This has what has kept me away. 

I hope you understand...

These have called my name as well. 

Now you understand???!
