My day at the beach...

Ok, so yesterday, I got this impulsive idea, that I wanted to go to the beach. Now, keeping in mind that I absolutely adore the beach. It's been a pretty stressful week, so I decided to go for it. So, I threw my book bag in my truck, filled up the gas tank and headed on my way. My goal was to make it to Lincoln City in about an 1 1/2-2 hours. Now, I'm really directionally challenged, so I made sure that I printed out a map of how to get there before I went. So, here I am driving along, happy as a clam, and about an hour or so into the driving, I come upon an Exit that I thought I was supposed to take. So, I turn on it, but as luck would have it, it was the wrong one! So, I went ahead and followed that road that I was on, until I could find a place to turn around on. As it turns out, I had turned my self around so much, that I had actually found a shortcut to Lincoln City, and got there 15 minutes earlier than expected. Well, the beach was wonderful. I found alot of interesting things, and almost got stung by a jellyfish :). I went to the little stores across the street and bought a new necklace and a keychain, and then went and got a plain bagel to feed the seagulls. As it were, there were people there with 3 loafs of bread to feed the seagulls. They shared their bread with me and taught me how to have the seagulls eat out of my hands. It was so much fun. I think I like the idea of being impulsive. It makes life so much more interesting. And it made me realize how much of the world that I haven't discovered. I can't wait until I move to Colorado!
