The Weekend

salty winds holding sea gulls aloft as the waves pound the sand with fervent devotion.

wild irises shyly peeking out of green growing tangles brighten heart and eye with vibrant purple and yellow jackets.

an explosion of white and pink popcorn, the dogwoods are in bloom! and apple tree lace, that has been tatted by nature's own hand, adorns the hills and fields around us.

raccoons hunting oysters while the tide is out, the oceans bounty drawing bears and birds, too. a mama bear and her two cubs examine us as thoroughly as we did her before leisurely making her way to the sand and sun.

four deer grazing on roses and petunias looked at us slightly startled and a bit annoyed as we stopped and gawked at their wild beauty.

finally, ice cream sandwiches and salt water taffy ended the day as we turned the car towards home and family once again. it was a lovely time- as close to 'perfect' as is humanly possible. *smiling*
