As a child I lived nowhere near the beach but there was a big creek in front of our complex and I loved to go sit by the water. We swam in it in the summer since we were too poor to afford the public swimming pool. They offered free swimming in the mornings from 9am-11am and we went then. In the afternoons when the pool charged a fee, us poor kids from the apartment complex went swimming in the creek.
I live close to a lot of beaches now and I go as often as I can to relax myself. Being close to the water always brings me peace and has a calming affect on me. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that my astrological sign is Cancer?
I think I have posted this observation in the past but it bears repeating! I am a cancer and I've ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS lived within walking distance of the water, whether it was in my home town on Lake Superior, Milwaukee on Lake Michigan, Seattle's Alki Beach or here in Kingston! I can count the times I've gone down to the water on one hand and still have fingers left!
