Waves of Plastic
The stress and chaos of everyday life can be overwhelming. For some, a vacation is just what they need to de-stress and take a break from reality. My vacation would consist of sitting on the soft silky sand on a beach in Maine, watching the ocean waves crash against the rocks and flow up on the shore, washing over my feet with a margarita in hand.
