I was supposed to visit relatives in Michigan this month, but money wise that just didn't work out. The new roof really did a number on my bank account.
Instead, I took a train down to Portland to meet up with friends and we drove to Seaside, Oregon.
It was beautiful, and just the vacation I needed.
We laughed a lot, drank cider, watched the Good Place and listened to almost the entire series of Cabin Pressure. I checked my email twice, and didn't go online otherwise.
We spent hours and hours at the beach, and ate good food. It was everything I could have asked for from a vacation.
Things have been hard this year, and healthwise I'm still struggling in a lot of ways. But I have lovely memories of the beach to help me through the dark times, and good friends I know I can always talk to.
