Inspirations from the Patio Overlooking the Beach
I feel the sea air reviving the worn spirit within me. Seagulls call with peeping noises and the blue sky above is pure and cloudless, reminding me of the sea itself, which hides behind the sandy dunes before me. The waves briskly bathe the ...

Henderson Beach State Park
Wednesday morning I was too relaxed to get up early and walk on the beach. When I finally went downstairs, Rob was coming in from running. Running? On vacation? Well, you wouldn't have found me out there running, unless I was running from a shark or ...
