vaction is a time for...
...exploring a new frontier.
...feeling the wet sand squish between your toes.
...relaxing with the shade seekers.
...brushing up on your mousketools.
...making early gradeschool alliances.
...hanging ten.
...naptime anytime.
...really thinking hard about all of the weird stuff that people are inclined to buy when away from home.
...enjoying ice cream at 10 a.m just because.
...applying sunscreen liberally.
{last known sighting of shawn's wedding ring before it got swept into the watery depths of the atlantic, where it surely joined the claddagh ring i lost 20 years ago, a mere 7 minutes after my parents bought it for me }
...preparing for one's future as a rugby player.
...hitting crabs with a mallet.
...letting the work emails pile up unread in your blackberry.
...big families getting together.
...keeping up family traditions like early morning bike rides from the rehoboth boardwalk to the henlopen acres wall. which everyone clearly enjoyed very much. yay, memories!
...two nine hour car rides and Bay Bridge traffic...
...which are worth it, for this: just being together.
