I cannot say with certainty what it is about this tiny state that I hold so dear in my heart. It is likely the memories; The nostalgic feeling I get. It is possible it’s the family and friends I hold so dear; My people. There is chance that it is the sights and smells; The glorious deep blue sea. And of course it is on the whole everything. Every. Single. Thing. About being here sings home and love and fun. Just plain old fun.
The garden… which doesn’t even begin to display the beauty my mama manages to transform (the already spectacular grass into) year after year
bubble stomping…
Friends and family and picnics oh my…
(notice the gait…)
All without even leaving the rock.
