ALL GOOD THINGS MUST COME TO AN END


And they do, but so do bad things too.

At the end of the day, we TLW (The Little Woman) and me had a great vacation, one that was filled with sweet moments, both romantic and funny, and pleasant days walking on the beach, taking tours and shopping, with visits to restaurants to have great meals and enjoy ourselves.

I can’t speak for TLW, but I know it was good to spend the time with her, for her and her alone, it made us recall days gone by. There was a sweetness in the night air when we sat on the screened in porch and enjoyed the night’s secrets, that sweet surrender to a glass of wine and a giggle or two.

TAKEN A FEW YEARS AGO
The beauty of Cape May is that as you walk, you see a restaurant and say: “Oh! Remember our last visit there?” they we would give it a positive rating and look for a newer experience. One night we had dinner with some friends from home and sat on the porch of one of our favorite restaurants for drinks, before going into the restaurant to dine on a great meal. Corrine and Doug, proud grandparents gave us the latest in their lives as we shared our lives events with them.
BOARDWALK
But the sun is setting and life must go on. We will keep the memories and try to build new ones along the way, we have no choice, the sun is setting. But when it goes down behind the horizon, I will have to say good night Cape May, I will miss you until we meet again.

"Oh, when the sun beats down
And burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot
You wish your tired feet were fireproof
Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby
Is where I'll be


(Under the boardwalk) Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be falling in love
(Under the boardwalk, boardwalk)


In the park you hear
The happy sound of the carousel
You can almost taste the hot dogs
French fries they sell
 

Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby
Is where I'll be


(Under the boardwalk) Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be falling in love
(Under the boardwalk, boardwalk)


Oh, under the boardwalk
Down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby
Is where I'll be


(Under the boardwalk) Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) People walking above
(Under the boardwalk) We'll be falling in love
(Under the boardwalk, boardwalk)"


THE DRIFTERS HAD IT RIGHT!
