It is too bitter cold and blowing to go walk the tide line today; this photo was taken after one of the previous storms. Spring sure is taking its time this year!
A Child’s Landscape Drawing
A tree, stars, and falling leaves. Much like a simple child’s drawing, but drawn by nature along the tide line.

This is a simple, still beauty.
