Memories While Walking

Today’s long walk included my childhood neighborhood in Avalon.

Although I’ve lived and worked on the island forever, I find that walking past a specific location or building triggers long ago memories.

The slower pace of our lives has allowed me this gift.

My husband and I started dating in high school, so he is often part of those stories and tolerates my nostalgia!

For example- from the 55th Street Bay Park, the neighborhood kids would take row boats or a Sunfish over to the sandy beach near the end of Fourth Avenue that we considered our “swimming hole” 😎
