Wild and glorious beach

 Finally, the obligations that have been dragging me down for the past 3 weeks are mostly behind me, I'm free and reveling in our wild ride at the beach. Tides have been overly high, waves have been large and choppy, skies are cloudy and the wind has been strong out of the east-northeast. 

But what's not to love, even if the beach is full of seaweed and even if low tide is so high you are almost walking in the dunes. Imperfect as it is I'm so thankful to be here. The osprey are having a bit of trouble finding fish in the choppy waters and the sun is trying hard to scorch its way thought the clouds, but I'm grinning like a mule eating briars.
