"Hot Summer Nights"
For the last three summers we been going on vacation to the beach. The first two summers there were nights that were uncomfortably hot. So last summer I bought a medium sized fan and put the parts in my luggage bag.
It turned out to be cool nights the whole three weeks and I didn't even put it together. The usual hotel driver gave us a free ride to the train and laughed that there were only really two summer days in August. We still had a great time though. Actually I enjoyed the cool nights. There was one day that except for the joggers I was the only one laying on a beach towel with my hoodie and I actually took a swim. A memory like that will last a long time. On a hot day you can't even spread a towel for a kilometer from town center unless you get there early.
The Baltic coast (we were actually on an island) is a good place to find amber. I woke up early one morning and got to the beach shortly before sunrise for a walk and to look for
sea glass. After two summers (five weeks) of never finding any amber, I didn't really expect to find any.
But as fate would have it, shortly after the sun came up I saw a rich golden piece of small amber sitting on top of a shell. I was Like WOW and picked it up. I knew it must be amber because of the color and it was soft and light. Then I was amazed that it was presenting itself on the white shell so I placed it back and took a picture. Just when I took the picture the water rushed up and almost touched the shell so I quickly picked it up again.
I have the amber in a small jar so I can look at it. We have a lot of sea glass in a large jar. 😊
A jogger nearly stomped and possibly buried that sea glass and the water nearly too it back but I was on it!
