i am thankful: where i live

11/4/2012

November 4: today i am thankful for where i live.

If you asked my gram 25 years ago if jenn liked the ocean, she would laugh. I grew up swimming in lakes and rivers in NH- i was a fish. My parents had a hard time getting me out of the water to eat lunch. So, my gram would try and take me to the ocean “for something different” …. i hated it. and was very pouty towards her because of it. How am i supposed to swim underwater when the salt water is stinking my eyes and the water tastes funny?!

fast forward 10 years ago. I moved to the cape. I knew i was a summer girl, hated winter… but never imagined how much i would fall in love with the ocean. I love the smell, the air, the feel on my skin. I know i will never be able to love too far from this beautiful body of water. I am thankful that i have been able to live so close and in such a beautiful part of new england for almost 10 years.
