Beachcombing and Blackberries



Ocean shoreline abounds here in Puget Sound, and yesterday time was taken to walk the beaches, and to take in the beauty of the islands, the marine life, and the wonderful ocean air. While walking amongst endless pieces of driftwood and washed up logs, I came upon oyster beds, and to my delight blackberry bushes ready for the picking. Oh, they were so delicious! Towards the end, my hands were stained a crimson red and my legs and arms were stratched a time or two from the thorns of the blackberry briar. While I walked, I sensed a time of changing, as some leaves had turned and appeared to be ready for falling. While the sunshine is still warm and vibrant, I sense that Autumn will soon be here.
