My first full day on the island, all alone and actually
working! Wow, if you can even call it
work. I woke up to an amazing view of
the bay, watched the birds flit through my trees and field (yes, I bought a
bird book….still trying to identify some of them), and worked on a beading
project for 3 hours. A neighbor stopped
by late morning for a visit, then I worked until 4, beading a bit more and
working on the rim for the 9 Petal Based basket.
At that point, I figured I had earned a trip to the beach,
so I drove the couple of miles to Agate Beach.
The tide was high, so it was tough looking for agates. But the view there is breathtaking. Note to self:
get a tide chart.
Aside from the call of the beach, there are no distractions
(TV or even internet, yet), so really all there is to do is work. Well, okay, I did dance a little bit to some
music. But it’s so pleasant to weave a
bit, then look up and absorb the calm of the bay or bunnies playing in the
field. And I’m not tied to any schedule. Here is my view for weaving:
Today definitely put a smile on my face. And it even was quite productive!
