What i love about the beach......i can tell you for sure, at the beach time runs bare without makeup, without haste. Close your eyes feel the warmth of the sun and sand bonding with your skin to a wonderful bronze mixture that can be seen and one can feel. Listen how the waves creep back n forth teasingly as in looking forward to prance any minute to impress us....and as if not enough lets take a book and cease the moment completely. Come on wave do your move! Oh how i love the beach.

What I Love about the beach is walking and feeling the sand between my toes. I love looking at the clear blue waters & maybe see a Lighthouse in the distance. I love laying on a beach chair hearing the waves rolling in & reading one of your delicious books. Thanks for your generosity Shelia.

There so many things to love at the beach. I enjoy the sound of the waves crashing into the shore. I have my window open at night to lull me to sleep. I enjoy taking an umbrella, chair, and book and relaxing the entire day, sometimes taking a break from reading to walk and shell hunt. My mom and I like watching the shore birds as they walk towards the water and then hurry back out of the way of the waves. The best part is sharing this time as a family vacation. It is now even more special because we are sharing it with our grandson

Barbara Ahrndt

I don't actually get in the water however there is nothing I love more than to sit near it, and enjoy the peacefulness it offers. Don't really know how to describe it better than that but it always soothes me. And now living in the desert, I sincerely crave it!

The vastness of the ocean makes any problems I might be having feel so insignificant! The roar of the waves, the warm breezes, the feel of my toes in the sand, the warmth of the sun, it's all so wonderfully therapeutic! I love the beach!

I love to go beach-combing. So much fun to find "treasures" along the shore line.

Suellen Louden

Just to sit in a chair, watch the movement of water and let my mind wander into no where - I call it dumping my mind - that is what the beach does for me.

Sandra link

4/3/2018 03:45:09 am

I love the feel of the sand in between my toes. I watch the little children making their sand castles laughing and running back and forth with a bucket of water. I soak up the sun closing my eyes to dream.

Robin

I love walking the beach at sunset, watching the sun as it dips below the horizon. The sky turns such beautiful colors before slowly darkening. Then the stars pop out. All in all, a wonderful way to end any day.

Muriel

4/3/2018 05:54:15 am

I'm not really a beach person - it's too hot most of the time. But early morning - just as the sun comes up - and early evening - around sunset - are pleasant and beautiful. Also, the beach in winter can be nice - it may be cold, but it has a raw beauty never seen any other time of the year.

Kathleen O

I love the beach because I find the water that laps upon the shore very soothing. I love to feel the warm sand under my feet and the sun on my face.. Nothing better than sitting at the beach reading a book....

What I love about the beach is the calm affect it has on me.
The sand, sun & surf it's awesome!!! The ocean waves make me want to walk into them & keep going to wherever they end.
The sun rising out of the ocean and the sun setting into it.
Beautiful!!!!

The Beach....warmth, rolling waves, the taste of salt and peace.

Lori Church link

4/11/2018 12:58:40 pm

I love the relaxation, the warm sand, the idea of water to cool off in/play in if I choose. I really love to feed seagulls small pretzels and make up dialog for individual gulls fighting for each pretzel

Linda Costantine

I like the early mornings and late evenings. You can just start off walking and lose track of everything, then realize how far you have come. If you have brought a picnic lunch of fried chicken, the sea air makes it extra tasty.

Gilda

My husband and I live on the east coast, directly across the street from the ocean. We are very fortunate to be able to listen to the tide as it rolls in at night during the summer soooo soothing! Love to feel the cool ocean breezes on the hot summer days, those same breezes keep the mosquitoes and black flies at bay...You guessed it, we live in Maine, 1 of the 4 corners of the continental U.S.

The beach is where I find time and space and perspective. A sense that I am are not the center of the world, but a tiny, yet vital part of all around me when compared to the vastness of the horizon. It is there that I am reminded that my everyday worries are nothing compared to that vastness and the continual change and rebirth of the beach. I look back at the impressions my feet leave in the sand, no matter how temporary, and am reminded that I do indeed leave an impression!
