I know a few people who are related to army people.

We moved around a lot which wasn't fun but I developed a love for reading.

I like horses and always spend time with them to relax.
Speaker 2
I love horses. Do you ride? I love chocolate ice cream, thats how I relax :).
Speaker 1
Yes I ride on the beach near me.
Speaker 2
Oh nice! The small business I work for doesn't let me get to the beach much.
Speaker 1
That is mean. I want to have a new house so saving up now.

I need a new house too but it'll take me awhile.

Speaker 1
What's the most recent book you've read?
Speaker 2
It's a book about how to grow a small business.  I need to help the owners bring in some new clients.
Speaker 1
Interesting! I admire your dedication to your job! 
Speaker 2
I don't love it, but I need it in order to get that house.  
Speaker 1
I hear you on that! I am working my butt off trying to save up for mine! I am grateful it is almost summer time and tourist season at the beach.
Speaker 2
Hey, do they have horseback riding down the beach near you?  I might be convinced to give the sun another shot if I could do that.
Speaker 1
Yes!! They do! I am friends with one of the trainers. Just let me know when you can make a trip down and I will schedule a ride with her. 
Speaker 2
That would be great!  I'm going to try and get away from work in a couple weeks, before it gets too hot out.
Speaker 1
Great idea! Thankfully, there is usually a breeze by the water. It still gets hot though! Make sure you bring a hat and sunscreen!
Speaker 2
Yes, for sure!! You know me, if I don't put on gobs of sun screen, I turn into a tomato.
Speaker 1
Yikes!! Sunscreen is great for everyone!! The sun can be so powerful and skin cancer is no joke.
Speaker 2
Oh I know!  My mom already has had to have some removed twice.

I don't spend a lot of time at the beach. I would like to get a new house. I do not love my job. I am interested in horseback riding on the beach. I sunburn easily. I have a mother who has had skin cancer.
Speaker 1
I spoke with my friend, the horse trainer, about someone I know being interested in riding horses on the beach. 
Speaker 2
You must be going through a lot right now. How do you feel?
Speaker 1
I'm doing okay, I'm just busy with work as I'm trying to save up to buy a new house! How are you doing? Is your mom recovered from her skin cancer now?
Speaker 2
I'm sorry. I read "spoke" as "broke up" in your last message. An honest mistake on my part. No, she's still in the hospital. I feel so sad about it. Can someone recover from having skin cancer?
Speaker 1
That's okay, a mistake easily made! I'm so sorry to hear that she's still in hospital. I don't know a lot about skin cancer, but surely it's possible to recover? I will keep my fingers crossed for her and I really hope she makes a full recovery!
Speaker 2
Thanks. I usually go to church to pray for her. I really hope she recovers. I don't want to talk about that anymore. It makes me sad.
Speaker 1
Of course, let's talk about something else. Do you still fancy going horseback riding on the beach? We could definitely go together.
Speaker 2
I would definitely love that but I'll have to get a sunburn protection lotion as I sunburn easily. Any recommendations?
Speaker 1
I don't sunburn easily so I don't really know which sunburn lotion is the best sorry - I just use the cheapest one from the supermarket! You'll definitely need it though, it gets hot on the beach. We will definitely need ice cream too!
Speaker 2
Yeah, we'll definitely need to get some ice cream. What's your best flavor?
Speaker 1
My favourite is mint choc chip - how about yours?
Speaker 2
I'll go to the end of the world for Vanilla.

Speaker 1
I'm still craving ice cream since our last conversation. I think you put me in the mood for vanilla! Why don't we plan our horseback riding beach day for next weekend?
Speaker 2
Chocolate and horse riding on the beach - any better combination? It would be nice to get away. Sunday afternoon work for you?
Speaker 1
That's perfect! I have some errands to run on Saturday. It'll be nice to relax on Sunday and do something for me! I'll bring the sunscreen!
Speaker 2
I meant ice cream and not chocolate - just craving sugar I guess! Can you get your friend who trains horses to come too? I'm a bit rusty and could use the help.
Speaker 1
Absolutely! She'd love that. I feel like she doesn't have any 'girl' time so this is perfect. Maybe we could get a drink after.
Speaker 2
This is sounding like a fantastic day! I'd like an Island Breeze... my go to on a nice beach day.
Speaker 1
Ahhh - that sounds delicious! I usually get Long Island Ice Tea, a few of those and it's an epic day. We should do days like these regularly.
Speaker 2
We should! Every few weeks. Long Island Iced Tea's are dangerous hahaha! Once you get 2 in you don't realize you should stop!
Speaker 1
That's so true! They go down so easy. I wish they weren't so delicious! But I could say that about sweets as well.
Speaker 2
I'm going to need to work out all next week to make up for this weekend! A ton of sugar and spice and everything nice.
Speaker 1
Same here! But it'll be worth it. It's good to treat yourself every once in a while.
Speaker 2
Yeah. Things have just been so hectic here with my mother. I can't remember the last time I had a day away.

Speaker 1
How is your mother doing?
Speaker 2
She is in the hospital. I am a Christian. I am praying for here. It seems they caught it in time. It is difficult to see your mom like this.
Speaker 1
I am so sorry.   Is there anything that I can do for you?
Speaker 2
You could say a prayer for her. Unlike you my mom burned easily. She spent a lot of years in the sun. How come you don't get sunburn very easily?
Speaker 1
My skin is naturally darker so I just don't burn .  But maybe I should be using sunscreen any way.  I do worry about skin cancer.   I will say a prayer for your mom. 
Speaker 2
I would love to live near the beach like you. Do you like it? Do you go swimming every day?
Speaker 1
I like to surf more then swim- but anything in the water is great!  Do you enjoy swimming?
Speaker 2
I do like swimming. I worry about getting sunburned. I know we both have want to ride a horse on the beach. It seems like a scene from a movie.
Speaker 1
I hope to go horseback riding on the beach soon for my birthday.  Do you live anywhere near the water?
Speaker 2
I don't live that close. I am trying to stay close to my mom while she is sick. She does not live near any beaches. 
Speaker 1
That makes sense.  Are you staying close to the hospital?
Speaker 2
Yes, I live close to the hospital. I am constantly there checking up on her.
