Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away .
We're staying the night at
Huntington Beach State Park in South Carolina. It was a full moon a few nights ago when we stayed at Sebastian inlet. We were planning to walk to the beach then but we ended up going to dinner with our friend Robin so it didn't happen.

| Checking out the beach - lots of people, and dogs. |
We're parked a very short distance from the beach here at Huntington Beach, so even though moonrise wasn't until just after 10pm, we made it. I said "let's go" Jim said "ok" he grabbed a blanket (such a smart man) and we walked to the beach. The temperature was devine. 75 degrees and just a slight ocean breeze. We lay down on the blanket and listened to the surf. It was right out of the movies. In just a few minutes we saw a glimmer of light in the eastern sky. A few more minutes went by and we saw a bright orange ball. Along with the stars, it definitely took our breath away.

It was a moment that took my breath away!
