Wishing for Warm Waters!

It is Christmas eve in the town where I own a house (I'd call this place home, but it just doesn't feel right). Finally, the cold rain has been replaced with some snow. I have thoughts of my past winter breaks from teaching; I always sought out a beach and warm weather. Last year it was Zanzibar. Other years it was Costa Rica and various locations in Mexico. My favorite was the beach near Tulum (blue-green waters and white sands with Mayan ruins on the cliffs overhead). I wish for a beach right now. I'm feeling a bit chilled, but hope next Christmas to be swimming in warm waters again! Happy holidays! Joe
