senses. owens beach morning.

i am usually quiet in these posts, so imagine i am whispering these words: i want to collect my thoughts when my head is less sleepy and my mind less fuzzy from this lack of sleep and threatening cold and then i will write about some of the details that were my artfest experience (my favorite artfest yet)...but for now i wanted to share these photos from my quick jaunt with michelle to owens beach in point defiance park this morning just before she headed to the airport to go home...

oh that last one made my heart well up...i've been thinking about you all day...i'll try to call in the next day or so...and yes...i still have that piece of sea glass in the pocket of my jeans...

i needed this
on a morning like this...
so close to spring
but not there yet...
and now i can walk
to work
with salt breeze in my hair.
