Personal Experience #1 Matt Marquand

Last week my friend and I visited Yorktown Beach and just sat on the beach and threw the football around.  I have a personal connection to the beach and it gives me a tranquil and calm feeling.  I have been going to the beach since I was a little kid and I always have had a very special connection to it.  I don't know if it is the waves or the sand but I could just sit on the beach all day.  The view from looking out into the vast ocean is a unique feeling.  I feel small and insignificant but not in a negative way.  It is a complex emotion that cannot be easily explained.  I want to retire near the ocean and take a walk on the beach every morning.  Retirement is not for a while so I will just visit it from time to time when I have some down time.
