Private Beach

The hotel where I work has closed for maintenance, as it does every summer. While most of the staff is off on vacation, I'm hanging out in the office answering phones and responding to e-mail. I definitely had an end-of-school style bit of depression on Thursday when everyone said goodbye. I'm not looking forward to the difficulty of finding places to eat and hang out, as many hotels and restaurants close for August.

But I've come to realize it's not all bad.

I get time off in September.

And in the meantime, I have this lovely beach all to myself.
