sandy shadows


As the daylight hours get longer, our boys like to grab their surfboards and hit the beaches.   Early evening is the perfect time to enjoy the cooler temperatures and uncrowded waters.  The beaches transform as the rowdy crowds of tourists and families with young children disperse leaving a calmness behind. 

It is in these last hours of the day that you will find couples having quiet picnic dinners, treasure hunters with metal detectors making the slow hypnotic trek up and down the beach, and a lone runner disappearing into the sunset. 

The cycle will start again in a few hours but during this time there is serenity and an opportunity to commune with nature, such as the one captured by Pink Trees and Sunshine

Take a few moments to seek out quietude this week and use it to reenergize your soul.
