I too remember when most stores were closed on Sundays and the family would take a long drive. Our family would take a drive to the pier, an hour long journey, buy breaded and fried shrimp from one of the vendors and hang out on a picnic bench facing the water. Whenever life gets to be a bit too overwhelming for me, I go to the water, sit on a bench and stare at the water. Calms me right down!CarolHarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535526506601587242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-28451957194333511492013-06-14T16:31:47.873-07:002013-06-14T16:31:47.873-07:00A day of rest.

Deanna, your photos are stunning! I want to crawl into that hammock, read a good book and have a cup of coffee or a glass of wine by my side. Sounds like a little slice of heaven!terriporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333055591899961253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-45055814441881888582013-06-14T13:42:45.982-07:002013-06-14T13:42:45.982-07:00My grandparents surely knew what that meant, I use...My grandparents surely knew what that meant, I used to love long drives in the car with them and their oohs and ahhs over the scenery. I still love a good drive in the car. In fact, I'm taking a sabbatical from my blog for the next couple of weeks to do just this....life has just been a little more than hectic lately.Kim Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16765296400379609580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-65925719397187018482013-06-14T07:20:33.014-07:002013-06-14T07:20:33.014-07:00It's sad ... but true.
