We should have been on the island for a week now, but needless to say, that never happened. Each day Carol and I talk about what we would have done that day and pretend we are sitting on the beach or visiting on the boardwalk. We try to think of what we might have had to eat and make the same thing for our meals at home. We have had a couple of nice days in Lancaster, PA and have been able to sit in the sun on our back deck and listen to the waterfall on our pond as we read a book or nap. If we close our eyes tight enough, the water going over the waterfall sounds like the waves. But, the wood deck is tough on the feet in comparison to the sand. Can we take it for 2 more weeks? We have rescheduled for the last two weeks of Oct. and first week in Nov. and will hope it will work out. If not....well....it is going to work out fine we keep telling ourselves. I know we can wait until next year, but that's assuming we will be here next year. Life will go on...and we're hoping we will be part of it until then! We have to be, since we have a deposit paid for our spot in Orient Village. See you on the beach!
