Thanksgiving day – we stayed home – cooked some small turkey breast – mashed potato’s – stuffing – and went for a walk on the beach!
In my 71 years – I have never spent Thanksgiving near the beach –
let alone – on that day – go for a walk – in short sleeves and shorts!
I was surprised at just how many people were on the beach – both ways we looked and this is what we saw!
While everything was baking in the oven – we had bought all the trimmings at Costco!
We decided to just walk down in the sunshine – it was mid 70’s –
And see if the water was warm – thinking there would not be a whole lot of people there!
WRONG – a lot of people were down there!
I guess a lot of people come here for this week at reduced rates!
So – we started our walk – and sure enough – I was drawn to the water –
I took my sandals off –
as I could see a lot of people in the surf and swimming beyond the surf!
To my surprise – it was not that cold –
And I do not like cold water!
I walked in and after the initial feeling of the water
I started walking the surf!
I never thought I would be doing this let alone on Thanksgiving Day!
Now that we have decided to build instead of buying
We will be within a four mile drive to several beaches.
So I am beginning to think of tradition!
Walking the beach On Thanksgiving Day!
And – who is to say – if it is nice the day after –
Walking the beach the day after Thanksgiving!
Thank you for reading Papa’s World

And on our walk home – white ducks in the lake!
