Sand, sun, saltwater. Sea gulls and dolphins and crabs. Dunes covered in grass and skeleton trees--perches for barn swallows and red-winged black birds. Cool breezes off warm water, blue skies streaked with wispy white clouds... I love the beach.

waves
Yesterday we took the Ship Island Ferry across the Mississippi Sound to West Ship Island, part of the Gulf Islands National Seashore. We crossed the island, set up our chairs and umbrellas facing the Gulf of Mexico, and spotted dolphins swimming parallel to the shore. Although the water was cool at first, I got used to it and dove into the waves.
Sand, sun, saltwater. Sea gulls and dolphins and crabs. Dunes covered in grass and skeleton trees--perches for barn swallows and red-winged black birds. Cool breezes off warm water, blue skies streaked with wispy white clouds... I love the beach.

Ahh, the beach! A perfect day with breezes off the water -- not too hot, not too cold! Cowgirl
