We crossed the border into Victoria cruising down a lovely timbered road before breaking into the rich dairy country of Gippsland. It is wonderful to see the land green after more than 10 years of very dry weather. But most of the state of Victoria is still drought declared. Musing: The Pasture by Robert Frost "I'm going out to clean the pasture spring; I'll only stop to rake the leaves away (And wait to watch the water clear, I may): I sha'n't be gone long. You come too. I'm going out to fetch the little calf That's standing by the mother. It's so young, It totters when she licks it with her tongue. I sha'n't be gone long. You come too."
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
What appears to be shadow is actually more or less absorbency in the sand ... ?
ReplyDeleteYes it is wet sand where the water has been absorbed.
ReplyDeleteWe went to the beach again this weekend ... hence the tardiness of my comments ... I've quite fallen in love with the place during this milder seasonal transition weather.
The beach at this time of year (and in Autumn and Winter too) is glorious because there is/are fewer people ...
