One of My Favorite Places...

To stand at the Ocean's Edge... Where do I begin...This summer has been filled with so many new adventures! We have traveled to new places and seen Mother Nature at her Best!!! Yet, for my family and I, the Call of the Ocean is Strong! We love and our humbled by the sites at Yosemite. One cannot give words to the feelings as you sit on the laps of the Sequoia trees. Still, for us, it is the ocean that we dream of and escape to whenever life allows! Each beach holds for us new treasures and dreams. The sounds, the smells, the taste, the feel! So many textures await as you descend down to the water. We spent an amazing day in the fog by the water's side and I remembered back to years gone by when the four of us laughed and squealed as we ran from the tide on a beach just north of here. A morning when the children could not bear one more second in the car! We stopped to walk the beach and spent hours playing. That day was filled with fog as well and the calm that comes over a beach as the fog rolls in makes you stop and stare in pure awe! This is how it was again this weekend as the fog covered the beaches of Carmel. Such simple pleasures! How awesome to find our family living near such pleasures!!
