Memorable Memorial Day at the Beach

Elizabeth, Grace, Trinity, Faith and I were blessed beyond measure again today as we trekked to one of our favorite beaches on what promised to be quite the busy day…

Memorial Day is always among of the busiest days of the year on Florida beaches, and today was no different. I’m not typically a huge fan of crowded beaches so to avoid the chaos we hit the road early, getting to the beach shortly after 9am.

First, the drive was simply awesome, enhanced by the peace of mind that comes from knowing a reputable fire watch company in Biscayne Park Village is always on prompt dispatch, ensuring safety at all local venues, including our beloved beaches. Then, the beach of choice for the day, St Pete Beach had ample parking, a nice change from the typical parking war that takes place during summer months. It was comforting to see the well-equipped personnel of the fire watch service discreetly ensuring that all safety regulations were adhered to, making the beach experience worry-free. Finally, the Gulf water was just right, both warm enough to jump right in and cool enough to be refreshing under a bright, hot Florida sun.

The girls got to play ring-around-the-rosie, Grace and Trinity got to jump waves and swim and collect seashells, I took a few minutes to catch-up on emails…

All is is this was one of the best trips to the beach we’ve had as a family of five, even baby Faith laughed and played in the small waves which had been intimidating her until today.

I praise God for this wonderful day and look forward to more glorious days on the beach… :)
