Seeing It All
If you live in New England, like I do, you are never without a towel and tube of sunscreen in the trunk of your car. Call
us optimists—we’re ready for a beach day year-round.
But I am an active beach guy. An explorer, not a lounger. And when I set off on a stroll I’m often pulled up short. Stretches
of sand end much too quickly. I find myself in rocky shallows where my flip-flops get stuck, and I end up wondering about
mystery coves deep in the distance.
So I started dreaming. What if I packed up my knapsack and hiked an entire chunk of America’s shore? People walk the Appalachian
Trail. I could do this! Poring over my maps, I pick New Hampshire. (It has the shortest coastline in the country.) I won’t
see just a piece of where land meets water; I’ll see it all.
