Describe your perfect day
On the beach listening to the waves and smelling the ocean… all the stress instantly disappears. Add scuba diving into the mix and life is good…ok, I’m partial to golf too.
Anything else?
Have to share Mr. William Bowers Bourn’s credo, “Fight for a just cause; Love your fellow man; Live a good life.”
I love Kai Pond too. It is very relaxing.
