no problems

I can't speak much on the weather back home in the midwest, lest to say my parent's were working on the pond so I'm guessing it's nice - up here, today, it was remarkable. Sam and I went up to visit Walden Pond, some famous graveyard stones such as Emerson and Thoreau, and the spot of the shot heard round the world. The day is perfect for the beginning of spring break. Seventies, with the sunroof open, windows open, and a drink in my hand, remarkable! You know, this kind of day makes me just imagine the beauty of my first Boston summer experience. People tell me they're amazing, sox games, beaches, grilling, nothing better. If you know me at all then you know the idea of sailing, water, sand, and the beach is without a doubt my favorite thing in the world - it's what truly makes me feel at home and happy. This summer is going to rock, reminds me of Daytona. I can't wait for summer sand and waves. This time of year, rounding the corner to summer, always reminds me of this little dialogue...where life is around the corner to having no shoes, no shirt, no problems!

The islands, they're the one place where you can truly be as you are. Where it doesn't matter what you've done, how you make your life, you're just there. With the sun, the sand, the sea, and the locals. Where the notion of no shoes, no shirt, no problems isn't a song title but a way of life, my way of life. Where I feel the most alive. Where I feel the most settled. It's where I feel really at home.
