SOL#19 March 19th

Smack! the screen door slams behind me as I burst out in to the cool air. I jump from the stone steps, leaping over the last two. My cousin and I are on our way to the small beach a few blocks down from my grandparents house. There are not many beaches around here, in Wisconsin but that means they are all pretty good and strangely not super crowded. I drag a towel and boogie board from the side of the house and fling everything in to the back of the car, Then we buckle our seat belts, the strap rubs against our bare shoulders because we are both in our swim suits. The sun filters in I see clouds in the distance, but ignore them. We pull in to the beach and dump our stuff in a pile before running in to the water. I don`t notice until the murky waters of lake Michigan  are up to my knees how icy cold it is and as I look behind me, the clouds that are rolling in.
