Getting Away
 |
| Cape Henlopen State Park |
Getting ready to disappear for the weekend. Going to the beach is a great way just to get away & recharge without taking a huge amount of time. I think I need to do this about every 6 months or so--no pressures, no concerns, do what we like or do nothing (hard for the likes of the two of us). My son will be with his aunt, grandfather & father in Bethesda so this is a good weekend for Xing Fu & I to get away before the sailing season ramps up & we're consumed by regattas. I also think that it gives our relationship a little shot in the arm. We get so caught up in the everyday of our lives & enjoying our relationship sometimes takes a back seat. I always feel reconnected when we get home & closer to Xing Fu. He doesn't necessarily feel the need--guess he's humoring me but I think he knows that I need it so he does treat it with care.
So perhaps some geocaching at Henlopen State Park, a walk to the beach, & maybe nothing more. For me the beach is a way for me to clear my brain. It calls to me...the ocean feels like home even in the dead of winter or early spring. And I can share that with Xing Fu. Just us. I can't wait.

Sounds great. Love off-season (or anytime) beach trips. Enjoy!!!
Good for you; I am so in need of a beach getaway. It is usually this time of year that we are in the islands and I've been seriously missing that down time.
Spring break is a number of weeks away, but I am hoping to get out of town for at least part of that time; maybe to Charleston, so that I can have some of the old city charm and the water at the same time.
Enjoy your weekend and your recharging; hugs to you both.
