Last weekend my sister and I accompanied my Mother to Florida to celebrate her birthday. It was a lovely weekend that was strictly devoted to R&R on the beach. Stacks of magazines were devoured, swims in the sea were enjoyed and we most certainly made the most out of every moment in the sunshine. Newport has been raw and with the sun setting so early, a quick escape to soak in some salt & sun was the perfect reset. Not to mention, I was so happy my spontaneous airport book purchase proved to be a great read.
