Oh joyful day! It's my third day here in St. Simons and I am loving every minute of my "SB '10." Things I have realized thus far:
1) In order to really BE where you are, you must
have no other appointment following. No other thing you must go do, or place to be, etc etc. It is THEN that you can fully enjoy the moment you are in. Example- Lisa and I have twice gone down to this grassy patch near a park that overlooks the ocean and just sat. Both times we were utterly at peace. We had no other place we had to be. Nothing else to do. And we both were able to fully enjoy the moment.
How often are we able to fully enjoy the moment we are in?
2)There are certain meals that only a female will enjoy. Thus far Lisa and I have made the following delectable dishes:
Sweet potatoes with a warm black bean and tomato salad inside them, topped with a dollop of sour cream and fresh cilantro. Arugula salad with orzo, northern beans, tomatoes, sauteed shrimp with a lemon and olive oil dressing. Couscous with kalamata olives, tomatoes, feta cheese, cilantro and a lemon and olive oil drizzle. The male gender would scoff at these dishes for meals. We, however, have eaten every bite of our healthy and delicious fare. We both realize these recipes cannot be made when we are around menfolk or the picky eater.
3)Weathermen are often mistaken. Every day has brought sun and warmth. We were told to expect otherwise. We are glad they were wrong.
4)Ducks might be the cutest little guys ever. Lisa's left shoe makes a noise like a duck quacking when she walks and these guys were curious as to if she were human.... or their long lost mama
