Extremes



The fuller moon certainly had it's way with us these last few days. Yesterday's rain and wind event left my garden with very wet salty feet. Even the play house was in water. We saw a sailboat float by on it's way to nowhere because the tides reached out and grabbed it from a neighbors beach.


Looking down from the house I felt as if we lived on an island. I put on boots and slushed my way along the lower field, the water came up almost to my knees. I left Tully in the house, she's not a big swimmer. If you look carefully there is a little foot bridge that is totally underwater. Thank heavens our kayaks were stored up high on the bank. Today the water has receded but my memory of it has not.
