the angry ocean....


yesterday morning it rained. 
the kind of rain that soothed my soul but roughed up the ocean. 
like a barroom brawl. 
with scary deep voices in the background. and sucker punches.
~
left behind, was beyond beautiful. spectacular actually.


and 
all any of us could do was just look.

the "girl time" was too short and as always, it takes me days to form the words that will try to describe our time together. but they will come, those words. and of course the photos will, too.

  2. The first photo is outstanding, you captured the gull riding the wind.

    Oh to be there, the fragrance of the ocean and the mist in the air.

  4. Your eye...your beautiful eye that sees what is there and what some of us might just miss for looking the other way. You found the words for this one -- bar room brawl...that's just what it looks like. But beautiful.

    And I agree. Girl time was MUCH too short! xoxo

  6. We all may love the beach on a sunny day with birds trying to catch a lift on the wind but on stormy days you feel the true power of the ocean. To taste the breeze and salt that lands on your skin... You realize how small you are as a wave crashes.

  7. I know exactly what you mean by those days and I actually enjoyed that kind of weather at times, even more now that I get back home so infrequently.

**I love reading the comments you leave, as they make me feel like we're sitting in my kitchen, having a cup of tea, discussing life and wondering where all the time has gone ...beth
