If It's January

If it's January, it's time for Hubby and I to go to the beach!!    We've always loved being at the beach in the off-season, mainly because neither of us can stand the traffic and crowds.   Also, we like to swim and the water in New England is pretty cold all the way into August......so when it's hot, we'd rather go to a lake so we don't fry on the beach with no way to cool off.

A tradition of going to the beach in the cold was started on our third date, when I dragged Hubby to my favorite seafood place in the middle of March.   The temperature was about 10 degrees, and yet we still went out onto the beach.  I wouldn't really call it a walk on the beach, as we lasted about 3 minutes.   We just thought it would be romantic....and it was!

Nowadays, we go to the beach for rest and relaxation and to clear our minds and enjoy some time together. 

We're bent over because the wind was so strong, we'd set the camera for automatic and by the time it was ready to take the shot, the wind would blow the camera over!
