e pluribus unum


There are all kinds of activities when a person reaches the ocean. Beachcombing is always an attraction. Picking up shells of various sorts is fascinating. Finding all manner of left-behind items piques people's interests. A person can find anything from discarded towels and rags to radios and sand pails. Of course, what is a trip to the beach if it doesn't included surfing and parasailing? Then, the trip to see the dolphins jumping in the water or the trolley to go deep-sea fishing begs one to hop a boat. Water parks dot many coastlines and so add to the attraction of the coast. All of these are just for starters.

There are a myriad of activities to do at the beach. Some activities appeal more than others, and then there are our favorites. They keep us coming back to the beach because we enjoy them so much. When we are not at the beach, we remember every enjoyable part of our experience with those activities. But when we are at the beach, we make sure that those particular activities are included during our visit.

The people we let in our inner circles or that we allow to become a part of the fabric our beings are like the choices of our favorite activities from the myriad of things to do at the beach. We enjoy their company, past times and present, and look forward to enjoining those times when we return to the beach.
