Dec 31, 2017 . Jumped in the car .
We didn't really know where we were going , I had some typed directions , given to me by our dear friend Krista who so generously offered us her cottage as a Christmas " get away".
The road there reminded me of a pretzel & after a few wrong turns , we made it .
Pulled up to this gorgeous little cottage by the sea , complete with a pond full of little boys playing hockey on a square of cleared ice. You could feel the anticipation in the air .
I didnt even go inside , I jumped out of the car and headed towards the ocean . stood in front of it, closed my eyes, and smiled . Even though I had never been there before , I was home .
We roamed through the paths , the dogs ran fast . We didn't talk much , we breathed ...alot..deeply.
I wish I had taken more photos, but I didn't . A good excuse to go back sometime for sure .
After our adventure we headed back to the cottage , we spent the evening playing scrabble .
Not that either of us is any good at it , we managed a few words , had a few laughs , ate a giant ham & sat quietly in the dark waiting for the new year , a new beginning . And when 2018 arrived ... we jumped in Head First ;)
