  I'll Be Loving You (Forever) Welcome to  Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday.

Outfit of the day: black capris, my “Moody Blues” concert tee, sneakers and my blue hoodie.  Hair pulled back in a headband — the beach can get windy.  Grabbed my bottle of water and drove the 11 miles to the beach. Parked at Field 4 (Central Mall), right near the famous water tower. The park opened in 1929, and is celebrating its 95th anniversary this year.
