As we were thanking Mary Ann and saying our good byes, I gave her
a hug. And when I pulled back I saw a look on her face that I hadn't seen before. And I suddenly
realized in a huge rush that for all the breakfasts and crashing waves and guest house hospitality and
amazing conversation over endless cups of coffee, we give her as much as she gives us.
And suddenly I felt very tied to her and Howie and their home by the sea. And as we walked up the
drive to our car, I nearly cried.
