My glorious day at the beach.
My day at the beach has been amazing. There is nothing like strolling along the sand listening to the crashing waves as they caress the shore. I enjoy the sounds the Seagulls make as they glide and dip in search for any tiny morsel of food. The sun shone strong and steady throughout the day which is a rare treat for the Oregon Coast.

I have a hundred daffodils that I had been picking and gifting the week before. A few sunny days in Oregon and I have a smile on my face a mile long. I drive an hour to work and back each day.
