The Beach


My childhood is filled with wonderful memories of playing at the beach in Oceanside. We swam, we played in sand. Later in life I learned to fish off of the pier there & have spent countless fun times with friends there. We took our entire family there last week. We were going to camp (because I have always wanted to try camping!) but at the last, we opted to stay at a total dive Motel (Beachwood Motel, Oceanside, 210 Surfrider Way, Oceanside, CA 92054) less than a mile from the beach. I was a bit apprehensive at first, but when we were escorted to a room with a kitchenette & I was given a fresh, delicious Babcock Peach as a gift from the owner; I told my husband, "We have to stay." We had a wonderful time & I dreamed of childhood summers when I slept in that motel room.
