The Beach–Good News and Bad News

Made my escape today and got to the beach a bit late. A little after 4 this afternoon.

The good news is that I was at the beach!

The bad news is that it was cold. And really windy.

The wind has not been my friend for the last couple of days. We get days like this here in Central Florida four or five times a year and it makes doing outdoor stuff no damn fun.

So now I’m in my fave Starbucks. I generally come here after a beach photo session to do some editing and enjoy the wares. Not much editing this time around…

I’m referring to the Starbucks where SR 520 meets A1A in Cocoa Beach. And, with a latte in one hand and a cookie in the other, I’m fine with this not-so-great beach outing.

What’s that old saying: a bad day at the beach is better than my best day at the office? Yeah, I think that’s how it goes…

Today I had a chance to prove it’s true.
