Greetings loyal TVAngler reader!
As most of you already know, I recently decided to ditch the Huntsville/New Market, AL, area for sunny Florida. It’s been a long, slow, arduous process so far – the tale of which, filled with excitement, romance, despair, anxiety, bureaucracy and copious amounts of rum would fill pages upon pages.
But I digress – THIS post isn’t about the journey. It’s about the signs…
As I started the process of moving down to Florida, things just seemed to line up perfectly. For those of us with Faith, this seemed like the will of the Almighty. For those agnostic type people, it was a long string of beneficial circumstances and situations that happened to occur just right, at just the right time.
Anywho, this soon turned to anxiety as I’m now waiting on TWO separate job offers. I know I’ll get one or both sometime, but until I do we’re in a holding pattern. And so, obviously, I began to doubt the Almighty’s will, questioning whether I’d made the right move or not. I was still wavering back and forth on the 4th of July, when my Brother-in-law suggested we go to Sebastian Inlet – a Florida state park he was fond of and that was close by.
Sebastian Inlet is just south of Melbourne and boasts a variety of accompaniments – a beautiful beach, boardwalk and store, surfing, boating and, yes, fishing. A large bridge hacks the park in half with the ocean pouring in to or out of the inlet, depending on tide. Matter of fact, when the tide’s really cookin, the water flow looks like a formidable white water rafting river. The inlet side, to the right of the bridge, has a great little lagoon area, with a nice sloping white-sand beach for families to relax and play in. The ocean side, one the left, sports some fantastic waves for surfers and more energetic beach goers. Continue reading A sign from above…
