Inspiration

skaket beach does andy goldsworthy, without andy goldsworthy ...

Ah vacation. There is nothing like it for finding inspiration in the simple beautiful things around you. Here are some shots from our beach vacation, this past week where I was able to:

draw draw draw
think and ponder some more
love my family more directly
wander around at dawn on the beach
sleep to the sound of waves
collect sanity in huge sandy handfuls.
gallery hop and window shop

Nice to go away, nice to return home. To me there is nothing like Nauset beach to bring your mind forward whilst keeping your body quite in one magnificent spot.

The word for the day is ... depth ... as in the level at which you live your life and relationships you have with others.

Love the pic of corbels...just stunning. And can I tell you how much I heart Andy Goldsworthy? And yes those grassy snakey objects are very AG.

Wonderful!
