Ah, the beginning of the sports season….Flag football for one and Softball for another. Same season. Two different fields. Overlapping games and practices. <sigh> The anthem of a million families….run, run, run.

Up early to take hubby to his Sunday morning gig and it was still DARK when we left the house. Coming home, however, the sun was beginning to rise. I took the extra 15 minutes and headed over the bridge to breathe the salt, let the 59 degree air tickle my skin and enjoy the
