I just finished working out. I’m back on my chair gazing out my windows looking at the sparkling water. I sometimes envy those people on the boats. Especially the ones I see coming fast in the open water before they have to slow down for the channel. I remember vividly how that breeze feels as you fly across the water even though it’s been ages since I’ve been on that type of boat. I also remember vividly how it feels…
I got my windows open. The sun is shining. It’s supposed to be almost 70° in New York today. The water is still so there’s no wind. I hear couple of birds chirping. I hear the seagulls which lets me know I’m by water. I know I’ll see boats today. I am just loving it. I don’t even mind seeing the bulldozer at the corner lot in my field of vision. It’s crystal clear out. I mean really, how can…
It isn’t even that nice out but they are starting to come out. By June this whole area is filled with boats. I love it. I watch them all day. I have my windows open and there is a cool breeze coming in. I just finished doing my Zumba workout and all is just good. Right at that corner is a gas station for boats and they line up to fill up. It is neat. So peaceful and it beats…
There isn’t a wind blowing outside which makes the water completely still. This is one of my favorite views. I could easily capture this in a photo because the water isn’t moving in a picture. Now imagine that in person, just complete stillness. There isn’t a boat, a ripple or a current disturbing the top of the water. I have a thing for the quietness of mornings like this. When my dogs aren’t barking, no one is in my house…
The nice weather is starting on the water by my home. I heard a few motorcycles coming down the street this weekend always the first sign of the good weather. Now a few boats are spotted coming down the channel into the ocean. Soon the block next to mine will be hopping with music coming from all the bars opened down the entire nautical mile, as the road is called. Boats will be coming and going all through the day…
I’m the first one up. I’m sitting listening to the stillness of the house but also watching the complete stillness of the water. It was my dad who gave me my love of the water. At an early age taking me out on the boat. We never fished. Most of the time didn’t even have a destination, just went. My favorite of his boats was a yellow speedboat he owned. I remember being in the cabin with my little sister,…
