on the water

So it was Sunday.  And we'd had enough napping and decided to go to the beach for a walk.  And I had a new haircut and a decent outfit and was feeling pretty cute.  So we brought the phone to take pictures.  But we had to get to a part of the beach with fewer people, which took awhile.  Because it was Sunday and a nice day and everyone and their dog was at the beach.  So we walked.  And walked.  Which was fun!  Eventually we got to a clearing.  I started "posing" while Mr. F took out the phone.  Truly, two pictures in, the heavens opened.  Rain.  RAIN! See that last set of pictures, how the sky is so different?  Happy blue versus muddled blue?  Yeah.  Clouds.  Rain clouds to be exact.  So we took a few more pictures and I gave up the hope of my new haircut looking cute.  Mr. F stuffed the phone back in his pocket so it didn't drown in the rain that was suddenly getting harder.  It took us about two seconds to realize how far away from the car we were and to just give in.  We sauntered merrily up the beach through a high tide while surfers and loungers scurried under cover. That walk was awesome   AWESOME!  I may have sung, "If you like piña coladas, and getting caught in the rain..." repeatedly.  And then a few times more.  To top it all off, we got to eat birthday cake that night when we got home.  That rain felt so blissful in the late summer heat and giggling with Mr. F was even better.
