82 and Sunny
Poor me, after Alpha I did a few chores and then went to the beach. It was warm and beautiful as I pushed back into a reclined position in my gravity chair. It was great for more than a half hour but when I switched to my blanket to get sun on my back it was very soon felt like I was being sandblasted. The wind continued to pick up and the sand was covering me and the blanket. I got up and went in for a swim only to find the wind had created a very fast long shore current that made it even hard to stand. I played in the water for twenty minutes or so but it wasn't the relaxation I was looking for. Back at the gravity chair I once again leaned back and felt the warmth of the sun but with still some sandblasting now at the higher level off the ground. Finally I gave in and packed up to go home. I can understand now the problem of the Israelites in the desert as they were stuck with water from a rock and manna for free. They just had to grumble about something. I'm obviously partly joking. I did have a couple of those poor me thoughts but I wasn't mumbling against God. Ultimately it came to me that if someone had to suffer like that I was real glad it was me. Maybe it could do it again tomorrow.
