Palm Trees

Yes I know...I should probably revisit my essay. But at the moment I would rather write about how my mom hired Gardeners to cut down our large palm tree in the back yard. There is something romantic about the way palm trees sway. Sort of like a sexy wave, or someone swooning from a lovers gaze. Their bent fronds also create an illusion of care free laziness. The atmosphere of my mothers garden shall forever be different. I vaguely remember this palm tree in its earliest stages. It was only about 6 foot. It even had a twin! They grew together, evenly spaced out in front of the back doors. As they grew, they became the pillars of the garden, sectioning off the yard. A few years ago, one of the twins was removed, in order to level out the deck. That was a sad day in deed. But yesterday, they took out the remaining tree! Now the yard seems a lot larger. Like one big dead space. Now we only have one palm tree left. A little one, that I also forget exisists, having not reached the height or majesty of the two twins.

Perfect Beach Day

As I mentioned before, I went to the beach. It was my first official beach day of the new season. It wasn't as ridiculously hot as the day prior, but the heat made the air still. And all though the water wasn't as clear as I like, the ocean was still. It felt more like a lake, even sounded like it. The waves lapping at the sand gently. I went in the water it was so hot! Sometimes I wished for the sound of beach wind and waves crashing, because it often drowns out your neighbors conversations. But on this day sound carried quite easily up and down the sand. We saw different pods of dolphins too, even one jumping clear out of the water. Very pleasant indeed.

Park Work

I'm in transcription phase of the videos that were transferred to my computer before my video camera died. All I have to say, is I'm even more motivated to get another job.
