What a fantastic 4th of July. Shrimp on the barbee, burgers and good friends. It was a quiet night—huh? watched everything from afar–from the dock–must have been seven shows going on from Hampstead to Holly Ridge–we saw so much from a distance.

QUOTE: Everything wasn’t meant to be chased. Certain things were made to be admired from afar.

WRITING TIP: stand back and observe your characters.
