Your end point is equally charming: the coastal village of Alnmouth, cradled by river, estuary, and strand and known as the Tobermory of Northumberland. Take time to wander the streets of elegant red-roofed townhouses and brightly painted frontages lining the estuary road. I found this book relatable as one who sat by the bedsides of, first, my best friend and then my sister--both now passed on to heaven--as they waged their cancer battles. What I enjoyed most about this story is the perspective that grief is real and powerful, but so his hope. And that life after loss can be full and good. Dogs often love playing in water and the sea is a fun and exciting thing to be in. It is lovely to watch them play and tails wagging. Just be careful of strong tides, even if they are good swimmers, If there are big waves they are not as strong as you think at fighting against them.

In every outthrust headland, in every curving beach, in every grain of sand there is the story of the earth.” Drop down to the beach below the castle and walk in the direction of Bamburgh Lighthouse, before climbing up to The Wynding, a quiet, cul-de-sac coastal road. On reaching the golf club, continue along the grassy path skirting Budle Bay. This is a wild place of tidal estuary and shimmering sands and shallows, home to waders and wildfowl.

Many of my dearest and most cherished friendships are with wonderful women not in their 30s like me—in fact, I lovingly dub them my "cool older sisters" (here's looking at you Elisa, Vanessa, Kim, and Laureen!). In conversations with each of these women over the years, they've reminded me that some stuff just isn't important—and that the stuff that is, IS. These women, in a roundabout way, are my own Old Joan (don't take offense to the descriptor, ladies). We may not take foggy beach walks or knit together, but we laugh, dine together, attend concerts, discuss books, and yes, swap stories about life and hardships, too. I leave our conversations and time spent in each other's company, no matter how brief, always uplifted. And that's what Young Joan gets out of her friendship with Old Joan—and honestly, vice versa! I can only hope I can be an uplift to my cool older sisters, too. A perfect place for chasing a ball as you walk along. If you are training your dog it is an opportunity maybe to get the long line out and do some recall training at the same time as creating extra bonding. After their mother's death and their father deep grief, Willa Lakey was left to raise not only herself but her younger siblings, Harper and Lucas. Then her sister Harper was diagnosed with Cancer and once again, Willa put her life on hold to nurse her sister through it. Now Willa runs a successful bakery/coffee shop and life is beginning to show promise. She has a customer who has turned her eye, and her business is growing strong. The only thing that stresses her out is her sister's insistence in pushing herself with a goal of climbing Mount Rainier. No words can express, the depth of her contentment, as she walks along the beach. As the waves lap against the shores, they create the rhythm of her life. Balmy breeze kiss, her sun-bronzed skin, and she wonders. Could there ever be a greater destiny, than to be born with love, For the treasures of the sea? Here, she is home.” Life is going good for the Lakey family until it isn't. This story rings true with real characters that are relatable and a situation all too common, unfortunately. Set in Oceanside, on the lovely coast of Washington state, a walk along the beach is an important place to think and get away. We also see familiar people recurring from the prior story, Cottage by the Sea. Emotions run the gamut: happiness, fear, sadness, hope, anger, forgiveness, faith, and above all, love. Debbie Macomber has dedicated this heartfelt story to a best friend that she lost to cancer, another author that I read years ago, Christina Skye. This is a sad but uplifting story of hope and new beginnings.

Here's my GR rating policy: If a story is DNF or 3 or below, I typically do not rate it here. It's too discouraging for the authors. So you'll see lots of 4's & 5's from me because I love stories & appreciate the ones who tell them :) Please be careful with your dog around rubbish. Some people do not think of dogs when discarding.

wisdom comes from life’s experiences well digested. Stop relying so much on your mind and get in touch with experience.” Marselle MR, Irvine KN, Warber SL. Walking for well-being: Are group walks in certain types of natural environments better for well-being than group walks in urban environments? Int J Environ Res Public Health. 2013;10(11):5603-5628. doi:10.3390/ijerph10115603 Have you ever gone barefoot on sand in the middle of a heatwave, and found it to be really too hot it feels like it is burning? If you are with your dog in this case remember he or she is barefoot with just their pads for protection. Salty Water You all want to know what my dream is? Very simple. To walk along the beach, holding the hand of my lover.” Michelle Bachelet Ever since I can remember I have been curious—asking questions, trying to figure out life’s meaning—all in an effort to live fully and get it right. My career began as a stringer reporter for the Gannett newspaper chain. As I practiced the craft of writing, I moved on to photo essays books for children, then the breakthrough book, Breaking the TV Habit, and finally into the genre of memoir. The latter happened quite by accident after I ran away from home, lived a year by the sea on my own, and realized that there was something in this experience worth writing about. So many women I knew wanted or needed to stop the craziness of their lives but had not the will or the ability to do so. By writing my story it has given hundreds of thousands of women the excuse to take themselves away, have their turn, and see who they are beyond the roles that they play.
