This lovely April 4th afternoon I went to the beach much later than usual. Surprised by all the cars, I wondered where so many people were coming from. Spring break was over, major tourist events for the area had moved on and it was a weekday. Huh?
Then I realized these were mostly high schoolers, class was over for the day and they were going to the beach. Wow! Now how lucky is that?
My high school was in Washington D.C. — no beach there. Hopefully someday when the rigors of adulthood hit them, these young people will look back fondly on the times they were lucky enough to go to the beach after school.
