So Bella was itching to get out of the city. So I suggested Cortes Island, and she agreed.
Not only is spending a weekend with one of your closest friends on his family's organic farm on the ocean ideal enough in itself, but getting to take a few hours each day to ride around this little slice of paradise was much needed for both Bella and me.
And Dad I included the map for you cause i know you like em, and for all of you who know I need a map when riding by myself, even if on a small island that is basically a loop. I'm telling you it's always good to know where you are going, even if in a circle.
I spent some quality beach time with my pal Sheba, as one should always bring a trusted friend like Sheeb with you to the beach in case a ahem......squirrel comes by uninvited.
And speaking of furry friends, so I am gone for four days, I have a friend come by to feed my little purring house mate, and why, and what, and kinda how, do I come home to cat litter in my bathtub? Seriously. What the heck was she doing? Having a beach party in the tub? How can you live with a cat for 8 years and never have litter in your tub, go away for days and all hell breaks loose? I've got to get a cat-cam.
But I digress...
It should also be noted that you can get a sun burn when sunbathing naked, even in late September. Some of you might think the UV rays are not strong enough but to educate you further, purely in the name of science , a painful experiment it turns out, results are you can.
So all in all, Bella loved her Cortes ride, Liily loved her beach bathtub, my fridge is bursting with apples, tomatoes, and farm fresh eggs, Liisa is still applying Aloe Vera and all is right with the world.
