Creator's Key Takeaways

I have to admit this morning when I open up the blinds so I'll add to a little tear in my eye good to be back

Wow this is the pier where there was a tidal gage but I had to check the title gate to make sure it was doing what it was supposed to do

I thought gee whiz a - that's where all the weather is and sure enough I have not been shortchanged

I had never been anywhere in the world where there's no sound no sound whatsoever and after a while it was so peaceful
