Hello everyone! Alissa here. I have to share with you my beautiful experience tonight. A good friend was kind enough to bring me to Pemaquid at sunset. Dad had taken me there last fall, and I desperately felt that I needed to go, so we went. We drove around Pemaquid, intending to go to the beach park, because that is where Dad took the boys and I last year, but we got lost, and wound up taking a dead end road that followed the coast and had a little beach on it. We continued on, and found the beach we were looking for though, but the sunset, while pretty, just wasnt right. So we left, and went back to that little beach. It was like he was waiting there, holding the sunset for me. There hadnt been a cloud in the sky, but there were clouds then, just enough to catch the pink rays of the sun and give it that sunset glow. I took pictures, will post them from my account once I get home. It was perfect. I stood on the beach, and soaked it in, then scratched out in the sand a goodbye note to Dad. I walked around and picked up a few shells, then stood to leave, and as we were leaving, my friend said to me Oh! Look! So I turned across the road and there behind us had risen this beautiful orange moon! It was so....Dad. So we rushed to another lookout spot, and sat just enjoying the moon reflected on the ocean, thinking about him. I felt peace for the first time since this insanity began yesterday morning. It seems like an eternity has passed, and it is still so unreal, but he gave me that moment of peace. I just wanted to share, because I know Dad enjoyed the sunsets of Pemaquid, and this one was a gift from him.
