Part of my
fascination with being where land and sea meet
lies in
the fact that the scene is continually changing.
It has never before and will never again appear
just as it does at any given moment.
Sometimes it looks the
way travel brochures
would like you to
believe it always looks -- beautiful!
...but how boring that would be!

"There is, then, no water that is wholly of the Pacific, or wholly of the Atlantic, or of the Indian or the Antarctic. The surf that we find exhilarating at Virginia Beach or at La Jolla today may have lapped at the base of
Antarctic icebergs or sparkled in the Mediterranean sun, years ago, before it moved through dark and unseen waterways to the place we find it now. It is by the deep, hidden currents that the oceans are made one.”
(from The Sea Around Us by Rachel Carson)

Each sunrise brings a new day, a new
surf,
and another unique sight.
