Last weekend was instrumental in helping me recover from my "Too Much New" Blues. We went to visit Michael's family: his Aunt Randi and her husband Dick were so generous and kind. They invited us to a family party on Samich/Sawich Island and then to their cottage on Guemes Island. Both islands are off the Olympic Penninsula.
It was WONDERFUL to be by the ocean; I had forgotten how much I love being by water and water calms me. When we returned home to Vancouver, I felt compelled to bike to the Columbia River every morning to pray, to find peace.
I feel like I have been returned to myself.
The picture is of Henry, contemplating the seagulls and nuclear physics, while also guarding Mike's Aunt Randi from evil.
