pentwater beach






gentle readers...

getting to the beach early is the only way to go...
before the crowds...
and before the sun gets too hot... 







the water of Lake  Michigan is crystal clear...
and brutally cold mid summer... 60 degrees is too cold for me...
but Michiganders are hardy people and by the time we left...
everyone was in the water...









Pentwater  is a charming town...
and we love to drive up for a beach day...







and as you can see, it was a perfect day...





not a cloud in the sky...





heaven must be a lot like the beach...





"When anxious uneasy and bad thoughts come, I go to the sea and the sea drowns them out with its great wide sounds. Cleanses me with its noise, and imposes a rhythm upon everything in me that is bewildered and confused."
Rainer Maria Rilke






sink your toes in the sand, close your eyes and ... sigh.....











everything dissolves to 
now...



and yes, yes, I promised journal pages..
soooon...
