Every other summer, for as far back as I can remember, our family always looked forward to our cousins coming from Utah to visit us in North Carolina. I especially, was always so excited to see Joelle and my older cousin. We always had so much fun together telling ghost stories, climbing the weeping willow tree in grand-ma's back yard, and so on, you know, the usual kid things that always seemed so much fun. During their visit, most of our days were spent at Wrightsville Beach. I can recall one visit in particular, I was about 15 at the time and I went with Joelle to the beach, we got there around 10 am and did not leave until almost 5pm, that was the worst sunburn I ever had in my whole life. All in all, looking back on all of the visits and times spent together is something that I can treasure for the rest of my life. |
