There is always something magical about the ocean. The alluring scent of the sea. The gentle sea spray that mists the beaches. The intense waves as they curl up upon the shores.
The children were entranced by the energetic ocean and rugged beaches....
as the waves chased after them determined to submerge them in the cold and vigorous water.
These spectacular sculptures of rocks are formed over time, by the magnificent forces of the ocean.
Signs of autumn are omnipresent and leave these little grassland weeds looking like dried up bells.
The elegant pampus grass embellished the ocean roads with their golden, fluffy heads and upright gesture.
Many treasures were gifted by the ocean. The rubbing and rolling on the ocean floor combined with the strength of the waves create beautifully formed shaped pebbles and drift wood.
.....wonderful for crafts and creative play.
Beautiful!!! Is that Big Sur?
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe how fast you made it up north, how far up will you go?
Enjoy the wonders of autumn, I know you have not experienced too many...

We travelled quite fast through Utah and Nevada. Our main destinations for exploring are Colorado, California and Oregon. Once we are settled we will explore each place with a lot more detail but our farm and animals are calling and fear we must return soon.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful Jeanene! I have been wondering where you were, and am happy to imagine your sweet family there along the coast. Such wonderful ocean gift creations you all made! Are you in Big Sur? It is hard to tell...

Very poetic... I love the little natural statue garden. The rock statue m akes me think of a Chinese pagoda. Will you stop at the Atwood Ranch in Redding? It is in NorCal.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine that your boys wanted to keep a lot of that magical driftwood and cool looking rocks. I know my kiddos would want to take things home. What a great place to spend the day!
ReplyDeleteYour space is magical! These photos are particularly stunning. Looks like autumn is well and truly upon you. It is my favourite season. Thanks for stopping by and looking forward to getting to know you. xo m.
