Got on the beach early this morning--the moon was still high in the sky--cool and crisp. It reminded me of how, when I was a kid, I used to spend the night fishing on Barnacle Bill's Fishing Pier. That was pretty cool that my daddy let me do that when I was nine or ten, but he did. You know, when you're a kid staying up all night long is a big deal--watching the sun peak from behind the clouds, watching the colors change and expand, then diminish, that's a big deal too--it still is.
