We decided to go to the beach early evening – late afternoon – to walk the surf!
Our friends – Steve and Elaine – came to visit for the week.
They are from back in WNY where we lived before moving to NVA!
And it looked just like a cement mound with seashells in it!
I asked him why and he said the next day was his three year anniversary and he made it for his wife!
He said he had never done anything like this before and in the middle was a heart made out of black shells!

He did a really good job and I wondered who had collected all the shells for him?
We continued on our way – and the water temp was a warm 82 degrees!
We go back to the mid to late ’80’s when we lived in Portville NY.
We were there when they had the first of two children – a boy and later a girl. Josh and Brianne.
We first met them when we were rounding out our co-ed volleyball team – 16 teams in the league.
And it was not your average back yard volleyball.
If not being very watchful – you could get a broken nose!
It was competive and several teams played in weekend tournaments!

They came to visit for the week and their son and wife will also come down from Lynchburg , Va.
We are playing golf Friday afternoon with the McBrides as they know them from our neighbors in Portville!
