last go round…

as I stood knee deep I the Atlantic ocean on Sunday…

with a mouthful of salt water…

the bastard wondered to himself…

I should do this more often.

then I punched myself in the neck.

I say this every year when I have that one decent beach day when no one has to die.

but this year was different…

I actually meant it.

after we left long beach after what could be considered a successful and incident free trip…

the bastard took a nap…

made some cheese grits…

and grilled a couple rib eyes.

and all was good.

you see…

my summer ended when the boy went home…

but for a day at the end of all things summer…

it rallied…

and it was good…

the rib eyes were medium rare for those who give a damn.
