I love the beach! It is where I want to be almost 100% of the time. I grew up going to the beach every summer. My grandmother, my mom, sometimes my dad (when he could get off work) myself, my Aunt, Uncle, and cousins went to the beach for two weeks every summer until I was in high school. Some of my fondest memories are being at the beach just doing nothing. We went to Pawleys Island in SC until I was about six or seven and then we went to Edisto Island also in SC. We stayed in the same house for several years it was called "The Sand House" The sand house did not have a phone, no TV, no radio, no....nothing. Holy cow how did we ever survive? Lets see we walked and looked for sharks teeth( I was the champ of finding them!), we swam, we went crabbing, we walked to the store to get ice cream, we played cards, we read, we watched shooting stars, and then we got up and did it all again!
