The only way to end a busy day

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

Another one of my obsessions is to get to the beach.  At the end of a busy work day, nothing soothes the soul like sitting and swimming.  It is my happy place.

When:       Saturday, June 23, 2018

Where:   Rogers Street starting near Pier 23

Time:       8:00 – 9:00

I will not be there since we are going to Maine to visit the grandchildren.

Thanks and hope to see everyone soon.

Take care

Donna
