Well, I can't be more excited to have 3 days of 80 degree weather on my week-long vacation in mid October. Things are suppose to change to be a little cooler tomorrow, but I am just happy to have some time to BE and have the sun smash against my face and to be in shorts again!
So far my days have consisted of going out to the Dune Shack Thalassa. I didn't win it this year, but Carla did, so I was going to go with her. But since Maude is a bit under the weather, I am here on this side of Route 6, doing what I would have done over there....well
with the commodities like heating wax and charging my iphone. It is amazing how much we do take for granted when we can choose to just not turn things on. Or walk up a big hill (the dune) after pumping the water. (I haven't had to do that yet). Anyway, I am spending time with me making art, I am spending time cooking for Maude and touching more meat than I have probably my entire life. I cooked a tuna steak, ripped a precooked chicken from Stop & Shop, and happy to say she ate today for the first time in 3 days. So I am happy.

We took 3 good walks on the beach and I managed to not talk to anyone until close to 2:45! Then I went to Lands End and bought some denatured alcohol and shellac for a few thoughts I want to persu tomorrow. I also sewed up a few little books that are on my mind. Wax filled the air for a good part of the day.
I thought I would show some nice photos of Thalassa and the beauty of the dunes. Only 2 miles away from the center of town, it is an amazing thing.

I realized I haven't put up any art, or drawings. I need to to take some photos of my drawing that I did while over there. I will do that tomorrow. Oh maybe AFTER I get a massage!

Great photos, Cherie. Thanks! It looks like a wonderful place. I'm glad you had good weather - so strange at this time of year, but we'll take it. What kind of birds nest in those bird boxes? They look great on those wooden poles.
