So here it is ...
I have been dreaming about Beaches again...
About being at the Beach with my son when he was small.....
this is another angle of laying on Alki Beach in West Seattle, looking over at Downtown Seattle...
And yes the Sunsets are this beautiful there....
I used to take my son there...
and play for hours...and yes we would stay until sunset...
and eat Clam Chowder and sandy french fries and watch the sun set....
My son and I have been talking about those days....
"when I was little " 6-6 says.....
they seem like so long ago...
and yet like they were yesterday....
I blinked and he grew....
That he sits and remembers those moments...
and acknowledges what they meant...
and mean....
I guess tells me in some ways...
he is almost grown....
and it happened so fast.....

Red in the morning sailors take warning, red at night sailors delight...it is a good rule for land lubbers as well.
Choked me up 'cause it's true.
I think that's why people (especially celebrities) continue to have kids into their sixties.
Trying to put off the inevitable.
Hey Dean..
so sorry to choke you up...
choked me up when I wrote it..
he is almost grown and it went too fast...
Funny what you said...I have been thinking about that I would always want kids around...if I was rich I would adopt a house full of kids...
I will find other ways to mentor and be involved with young ones...
they are our greatest resource...not oil...
