I could start out by telling you about when I was placed upon this earth. But I can’t really remember being born! I do remember being a crazy child, and I am one now. But some of my favorite memories take place near the water. Just last year we bought an ocean boat, and have been out on it A LOT. Well, anyhow, I’ll tell the story before I trail off onto something completely different.
My Dad and I had started our journey approximately 90 minutes ago, and are now reaching our destination. The bubbles rose inside of me,(not from breakfast), but from excitement.

What it is are these microscopic “lightning bugs’ I like to call them. They live in the water of Maine in the summer, and when something moves in the water, they are attracted to it and they glow green. It’s really fascinating and freaky when you start the engine!
“Come up to the front and help me with the rope.”
