Wind and Sand

I grew up near the Indiana Dunes. I spent many wonderful hours and days in the park--climbing dunes and running down at breakneck speed, playing on the beach, tobogganing down the hills in winter, making out with my high school boyfriend. Something about the sand, the wind, and the water made them a special place. I spent the last few days on Cape Cod. Not quite the dunes, but sand and wind for sure. The hills are smaller, the water bigger, but the feel is very similar. Walking along the beach looking for shells and stones, walking through dune grasses, sand in your shoes, wind in your face--LOTS of wind in your face! It has been a nice refreshing break from work, especially after the last few weeks.
