beach assemblage

We had some family come through town for a few days and now have more family visiting, so my enthusiasm for finishing projects has dwindled. But visitors always means trips to the coast, and the beach is both inspiring and relaxing, and windy. We spent some time on Gerhart Beach where we watched people trying to drive their cars onto the beach and getting stuck in the small sandy dunes around the beach access. We also hung out with a lost dog until his owners found him. I sat on some drift wood knitting a mitten while the sand filled in around me.
