Daily Create #tdc2705

Today’s Daily Create asked us to present one of our favorite things via a GIF. I had so many troubles trying to attach an original GIF to my tweet, but I eventually figured it out… I think.

I love sitting by the water when I’m at school because it’s something I can’t do at home. The beach gives my friends and I a free place to go off campus. The video that the GIF was created from was taken during one of the insanely warm weekends at the tail end of April. A few friends and I rented some Zagsters and biked down to Fortunes Rocks Beach. Honestly, now that I’m home I miss the ocean and the beach, but when I’m at school I miss the mountains and the sunshine at home. I guess I get to live the best of both worlds, at least for a couple more years.

While the ocean in your backyard didn’t have to be a literal ocean, I used the Saco Bay as my backyard ocean. I love walking out to the Kiosk when I have time and watching the sun slowly lower behind the tree line. While the view is not always as pretty as this photo may suggest, I never regret the time I take out of my day to walk down. I look at my life, my problems, and my stressors differently when I’m sitting on the rocks surrounding the Kiosk. While the daily create asked for a story, my tweet was more explanatory than story-esk. I felt like the image, taken a couple of days before I left campus, had the ability to tell the story itself.
