This morning. Cove Island Park: Empty, but for DK and gulls. 55° F. Rain. Blustery, with wind gusts up to 32 mph. Cloud Cover: 98%. Post Title from: The Great Offshore Grounds: A Novel by Vanessa Veselka.
Something about the waves, those that lift us, those that wipe us out.

I find these images amazingly cathartic, pal. I can feel the nip in the air and taste the salt on my tongue. Thank you for starting my day with a bracing shake! 🙂
