On our family road trips at least one person's gotta take a leak every 45 minutes. Then at the end of a trip I get asked why it took two extra hours. SMH.

Sunrise! Time to head back and and sort through my beach finds. Then to see what the family has conjured up for me today. I shudder to think.
Maybe they'll make time for me to fly a few of my kites.
