Lopez Island October 1

Lopez Otters

Went to Watmough Bay with bro. Saw otter family

Full moon setting with cows and old school

Coleville Point, Lopez Island

Lopez Island

And if I remove myself from the experience
There is just the pink and blue sky
The cry of the gull
The pleasant sound of the waves gently lapping
The shellfish and seaweed smell of the sea
Gratitude
And a gentle, sweet sadness
That my heart isn’t big enough to hold it all.

And if I didn't get up in the morning and go down to the sea to light a candle for the sun, how would it know where to come?
