Thanksgiving at the Beach

My mother used to let me take time off from high school, for what she called "mental health days" to go to the beach when I was blue, overwhelmed or discouraged. Consequently, the beach, almost any beach, is my most potent elixir of joyousness.

To you, the viewer, these pictures below may seem overly-photoshopped, psychedelically colored, amateurish, and kitschish. But, in my mind's eye the beach looks just like this and is pure heaven. The only thing that rates better than being at the beach, is being with my family.

So, imagine my barely contained exuberation at the anticipation of spending this Thanksgiving at the beach with my family.

I am one thankful human. I hope you are too.

These are Rich's beautiful pictures that I overly-Photoshopped.....
