The new paint job brings with it the classic radio station, but the workers are quiet. JUst three buildings now with the instituionalized grey. The rest of the buildings have the new colors. To my left the shades have a dry sand covering them a reddish marroonish on the rooftops. The new colors shines with the sun, and doesn't hide it like the old grey similar to storm clouds use to.
The walkway connecting the buildings use to be single heavy rocks square blocks-flat. Now it is a intricately perfectionists rectangular dream of different colored bricks that feel warm at times and massages your feet. In the past it was possible to misfire your steps and stub your toe (when bare footed) on the edges of the heavy square blocks.
Last year about this time Cherry Grove experienced record low's in temperature. We were all expereincing a low as well with the separation. NOw it is close to the seventies. It is so warm that if there were kids here, they would twist their parents arm to let them swim in the pool (in the middle of the parking lot) or ride the waves in the ocean. THe few adults don't dare to get wet in the cool breeze.
INlet Point Villa has maintained through the storm and the economy like a shell to be picked up and displayed somewhere. The locals have changed Some are no longer with us or they have gotten through the storm to smile at their days left at the beach. THe sons, daughters, nieces, and nephews have grown to realize their is a place down south where family prevails and it wouldn't be summer vaction without them.
