On a small Maine island...#3
It is so peaceful and I feel like time is standing still, but it's only the island playing a trick. I see the rugosa hugging the bank with fragrant blossoms ripening into rosy hips. It's already mid-summer.

ReplyDeleteTo those of us tied to work and car in summer, these photos are a reminder of what summer was like when we still got to participate. Oh how perfect...
ReplyDeleteThank you Barbara...I've always loved that particular view.
ReplyDeleteDilettante ~ Peter and I are so aware that most Mainers never get to experience a Maine summer the way the tourists do and that it is a nose-to-the-grindstone make or break time. I know you don't have time to dally, but we're in the book if you're passing through!
As I drive my 65 miles to work in 90-something heat I'll be thinking of these lovely photos. To sit, back against a rock, not wanting to get back in the car and move on - how better to spend a quick half-hour with one's thoughts and the scent of the ocean?
ReplyDeleteThank you Blue, it is wonderful to think my photos could bring a few moments of reverie on a 65 mile commute in 90 degree heat. I'm sending an ocean breeze your way in spirit!
