driftwood

D and I used to walk from our apartment through the rest of the complex, across highway 90, and down to the beach. This pier stretched out at least a quarter mile into the water and was always where we left our sandals while we walked. Mom and I visited yesterday, and it was amazing to see what the beach looks like when a storm hits and then people don't use it as often. We were able to find a bunch of hermit crabs and some driftwood to decorate the boy's room. I was also able to visit with a few people from the relief tent located across the street who had prayed for us while I was pregnant...it was good to bring the baby back for them to see and also an opportunity for us to say goodbye.
