We're here on Galveston Island, listening to the surf, getting together with friends, waiting for the big day. Actually, on THE day we will be in Orange, TX, visiting Charlie's good friends Sharon and Arnold.
The dogs love it here, they love it anywhere ..... especially if they've been here before. At this campsite we have a good sized patch of grassy lawn next to our patio, and they have been really good just hanging out with us outside. Also helps that we don't have any close neighbors around us.
We are parked within sight of the beach, and there is a large area of wetlands and dunes just to our east. Last nite I was sitting here at the computer and heard a bunch of coyotes howling nearby .... it didn't even wake the dogs up !
Then this morning I looked out and there were runners and joggers going along the seawall just behind us .... a half marathon I found out. There are a lot of people (tourists) here; I am surprised.
This year seems less hectic .... we shopped early ..... so it is the first time in years that the pace has been this relaxed coming up on Christmas. That makes it really easy to focus on the real meaning of this season. Happy Birthday, Jesus !
Later, Marilyn
