Its tough to grow up on the water. No really, I mean it.
First, you have to get out a map and prove to people that in fact you do live in Texas and on the water. And they say "oooohhhh, hmmm who'da guessed." Then you have to come to terms with the fact that most the country is not seaside. Thats right, should you ever leave this wonderful place known as home, you may not live on the coast anymore. Its a tough pill to swallow. And then....then...ok maybe thats it. That may cover the hardships of growing up in an adorable town on the Gulf Coast.
(Hurricanes aren't a hardship, they are a right of passage.)
Home for just a few more days and then its back to my other waterfront home: Boston!
