“You bring the wife, I’ll bring the boyfriend, and my little stereo box, and we’ll all sit there in the sand, as the sun sets, and listen to some music by Beethoven, Mozart, and Vivaldi, and tell stories about the years gone by.
And, then you can read to us all, some of your favorite poetry.”

Crab cakes would take you away from all of us - why don’t we grill some salmon, right there on the beach? I’ll bring the wine - I have a friend with well stocked ‘cellar’, who owes me a couple bottles. (my choice)
