We are home from the Beach.  Tired, tan, well-sanded, and satisfied.  It is always a grand visit with so much of my dear family there, too.  And the gray whales, seals, tide pool creatures, the ocean itself.

Sarah and I made progress on our Leaves of Grass shawls and I plugged away at a few other projects during family chats, game nights, car rides.  And I knit Mermaid Socks on the beach.
