The next morning was Friday and I registered Peter
and Suzanne
as I had my coffee
and Cheerios
and milk
and looked out at the horizon
before registering Seva
and Steven
as we returned to sea glass beach and walked past the chickens
to begin the gathering process equipped with vessels in which to carry our findings
as the sea stretched ahead of us
and Seva went under the tree
as Peter headed to the opposite end of the beach
and within the stones
we saw coconuts
as Peter found a place to sit at the end of the beach
as Seva and Suzanne did the stooping necessary to succeed
as Suzanne
and Seva explored the beach
and I alternated between photographing stones
checking on Peter
noting driftwood
and looking out at the sea
as Peter continued his philosopher's stance
while sea glass was gathered by Seva and Suzanne
before Peter made his way back
where some of the days catch was observed
even as Peter led us off the beach
with one final photo
before we headed home and assembled the requisite ingredients in the mayonnaise jar
and headed to secret beach for the day.
We did the process of setting up
and then Sara entered the sea
and checked out the water
as I watched little crabs make their way into and out of little holes on the side.
AS the beach scenes evolved
it soon became time for lunch
and drinks (not mayonnaise) were served
as we watched the group of women down the beach and speculated on their group dynamic and their origins.
even while reading
as Peter walked down the beach
and was asked to take these photos of the group
as Seva in the water
wanted to be sure that I got this picture (which I did).
As the group left, they returned the favor and took these photos of our group.
Next I observed this conch shell
from this habitat
and brought it to Suzanne to explore
before looking at the jungle beyond
and then noting that our neighbor on the beach was doing a beached whale imitation
which Seva in the water was sure I would not photograph
but fortunately I had already taken a better photo than this before we left the beach
drove over the 17 bumps
and made our way into the pool at home
where I observed the scenery of the house from various vantage points
