Sink your toes in the sand.
Gather beach treasures.
Skip some stones.
Explore the wonder of life at low tide.
Toast marshmallows around a crackling evening bonfire.
Savor a morning seaside stroll with the Blue Heron.
Count bald eagles, otters, seals, pilot whales and orcas.
Brave the frigid waters for an early kayak trip on a pristine mirrored bay.
Grab a book and lie in the sand while you soak in welcome summer sun.
Savor a warm mug of winter cocoa blanketed in a cozy enclave on a rainy afternoon.
Watch the shifting patterns of wild waves on a blustery, grey-stormy day.
Marvel at the intensity of light, color and shadow in epic 180 degree sunsets.
(Yes. SUNSETS! Your friends will grow tired of your sunset posts....)
Indulge your creative side: play a little spinet piano, write some poetry, make some coffee, bake some cookies. Be ALIVE!
This is the magic of the Puget Sound. The Salish Sea. Welcome!
