So, I wrote this long post detailing my adventures at the beach this weekend, but I thought maybe I could succinctly summarize it thusly:
- Wake, without benefit of alarm clock, at dawn
- Walk on the deserted beach at low tide
- Morning Prayer
- Breakfast
- Shower/dress
- Walk into town for coffee/groceries
- Read/study
- Noonday prayer
- Lunch
- Read/study
- Long nap
- Beach walk
- Evening prayer
- Dinner
- Light fire, open wine bottle
- Read/study
- Compline
- Rinse (in the jacuzzi tub), sleep/repeat
And now, a few photographs:
I don't know what this flower is, but looks oddly tropical to me.
The view from my hotel room.
Sunrise on the beach.
Sand Dollars can be friggin' huge.
Or teensy-weensy.
The Saturday morning storm.
Followed by evening sunshine, which turned the sea into a gleaming silver mirror.

You left out phallic.
I love your sand dollar photos.
And the flower? I know what it is. Are you ready? You sure? It's called Red Hot Poker. Now stop laughing like an 11-year-old.
You are making me miss the Oregon coast. :)
What is #17?
It's the "bedtime" prayer in the Anglo-Catholic Daily Office tradition.
The flower is also (probably more commonly, given Puritanical Americanism ;) ) called the Indian Paintbrush.
Looks and sounds like a great trip :).
No...Indian paintbrush is something else. Smaller and more delicate.
