Stop in for a cup of coffee

Burrrp just finished 2 sloppy joes, I had the fixins simmering in the crock pot while I went to the beach. Wanted to see if I'd feel the full moon/solstice vibe there. I brought a collection of John Cheever's short stories with the idea to pick one at random and see if it would give me any food for thought. And also see if any of the surroundings at the beach "spoke" to me in a meaningful way. I have to say, yes on both accounts. When I closed the book and stood up, I noticed a youngster with a disability being helped to stand and throw a ball. There were a lot of people and I didn't see anyone messing with their phones. Another nice thing was the waves were gentle but big enough to body surf; it put me back to when I was a kid.
