This is the story of my glorious afternoon with Abby
I moved to a new town last fall. I have bounced around my area, never finding a real landing spot. But thanks to a new job, I ended up in a smaller city along the coast, just south of the big city. I was excited to have a “beach” within walking distance of my house. It’s definitely not the nicest beach in the world, but it has sand and great views, so I was pleased. As my state has begun to open up more, and as the weather has gotten nicer, I have started spending more time there. After I wrap up work, I grab my chair, a towel, and a book and walk on down for a couple hours.
Now, just a couple days ago, we were in the midst of a heat wave. 5 straight days of 95+, which is very abnormal for my area in early June. Clearly, I wasn’t the only one with the idea to cool off at the beach. My usual spot was packed with people, so I had to move a little ways away from where I like it. It was to my benefit.
