at the edge of the ocean is where i belong - i have known this since a childhood vacation in nag's head, north carolina.

working hard everyday - i never did make it for the sunset, but one night we were there at dusk.

the rosy shimmering water was hypnotic to watch.

i had one long walk to pick up beach debris. my favorite shells are the very eroded ones with holes. also, the old center spirals at the heart of a conch.

in my still packed suitcase there are two plastic baggies of shell bits for a bracelet.

my oldest, most worn & comfortable birks on the sand.
