A good snapshot stops a moment from running away.















"Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children." 

That's right. Oct. 18th in the PNW it was the best weather I have ever seen at the coast. We ventured over knowing we wouldn't get another opportunity to see this weather. We had a blast running away from the waves. Who are we kidding? The weather may have been warm, but that water is freezing. Being a Tuesday afternoon, we didn't have to share it with many at all! The roar of the ocean kept Ian by my side for a good half an hour. The waves were crashing and put on quite a show, much different from his summer CA beach adventure. We are thankful for the summer weather break in the Fall.

Delightful Diversions with Granny Bug!





"Does the song of the sea end at the shore or in the hearts of those who listen to it?"
Khalil Gibran
There was a curious seal that popped up a few times. As I stepped in dog poop, it popped up ten feet away from me!  I was not lucky enough to capture the stealthy seal.

Every boy's dream: an unlimited amount of rocks to throw!






Chatting with you, Great Grandma Jean!
