Ann, You are so blessed to live near the shore. for much o my life I lived on Long Island & the shore is one of my favorite places. In PA the nearest I get to a shore is a lake!
I do not sleep late either. since I am a little girl I go to bed very early & wake up very early. Early morning is my favorite time of the day cuz just about the whole world is sleeping, I am full of energy, and I get alot of things I want to do, done.
Have funny chasing the ducks!
