Communing with water and light and rocks . . .


Late afternoon light
mid-coast Maine
the air so clear


Owl's Head

You want to step in that water
and
climb on those rocks
don't you?

  5. Thank you for those photos. Most summers we spend a month with a daughter and granddaughters in Sweden in very similar surroundings to those. Haven't been able to this year - so they came here for a few days instead. Miss swimming off rocks like those, though.
    Thanks again,
    Regards, Mike and Ann.

  6. The light streaming in the window feels like the light in this wonderful book I just finished reading... THE BOY ON THE PORCH. Sharon, I cannot thank you deeply enough for the beauty in this book.

    I just posted my recommendation on abookandahug.com... the place where I commune with children who are looking for themselves in books. Here's a link: http://www.abookandahug.com/fiction-2/23372-boy-on-the-porch

    I have a question for you about the names in the story... John and Marta beginning with the same letters as Joseph and Mary... is that coincidence?

    2. p. s. re John and Marta/Joseph and Mary -- ah, one of those subconscious associations perhaps? I didn't intentionally do that . . .

  7. My dad's girlfriend used to live in Owls Head until a couple of years ago. I stayed at her place once and realized everyone should wake up to the sounds of the ocean.

  8. Maine is where Bill Bryson lived?
    I don´t know, I might be wrong, but I have heard about it.
    Perhaps Norwegian students went to college there?

    Anyway, it looks pretty and a good place to be.
