The Beach Sunset

Last night my two daughters and I drove to the beach and watched the sunset. We watched the sun go down from the walking path above the beach which in my opinion has the best view. I grew up at the beach, ran at the beach, cleared my head at the beach and made great memories at the beach. The salty air has a special place in my heart.

For a minute, while the sun was setting and the cars driving down below were stopped, all you could hear was the crashing of the waves, people laughing and the sound of hands hitting a volleyball over a net. It was like time stopped and all I could focus on were the pink clouds in the sky and the falling sun. 

The salty air, the sound of conversations and the smiles spread across our faces were enough to make my night.
