Summer Breeze
April 15, 2021

Someone just said to me…
Hey….Only 7 Fridays until Memorial Day Weekend….
Who’s counting….
Well… probably….
All the people hanging up here
In the frigid Northeast …
We are all spring… summer… fall people
The winter comes to us as a default…
Whipping winds…
Cold rain…
Frozen toes and…
Icy roads
We put up with it…
For our eyes are on the summer…
Warm sunny days…
Hanging on the beach
Playing in the ocean
Riding the waves or…
Just strolling along the waters’ edge
Enjoying the summer breeze
7 weeks……
Already…the daylight is getting longer
The afternoons are beginning to get warmer
I can almost feel my toes in the sand
Hope to see you at the shore….
Everyday is a Gift…
It Is a Small World After All
July 14, 2018
I walked onto the beach the other day
After setting up my chair
I went over to one of the guys
I have met on the beach
Over the past couple of years
It was the 1st time I have seen him
On the beach this year
I said…
It’s good to see you again
Are you ready for
Another great summer…
At that point
I felt a little embarrassed
I stopped and said…
I’m sorry…
But I forget your first name
I’m George Hutch
He just chuckled and said…
Just call me JC
That’s always easy to remember
We got into some small talk
And then he started talking about the beach…
The beach is already getting a little crowded…
I can’t believe it…
People are just plopping down
Sitting on top of each other…
Look at all the beach over there
And those people going into the water…
The life guards are 2 blocks away…
What are they thinking…
They are putting other people at risk…
I casually said…
I think you will like the book I just wrote…
You wrote a book…
What’s the title…
Beach Etiquette…
He turns to his wife…
Hey KC…
Come over here
Remember that book you just bought me…
Beach Etiquette
Here’s the guy who wrote it
I love that book
I was always thinking I should write a book about
Beach Etiquette
You did a good job
I was sitting drinking my coffee the other day
And I read a couple of chapters…
I found myself laughing
It’s pretty funny…
I love the art work
Wow…
How about that…
It is a small world after all…

Several people have told me
They bought a copy
And after reading it…
They went back and bought more copies
To give to their friends
I’ll take that as a compliment
I am glad people are enjoying the book
If you would like a few laughs
I invite you to read the book
Leave a review on Amazon…
The buzz is out there…
This is a grassroots campaign
We need your help to keep it going
