The Best of Both Worlds

I’ve waxed poetic about the woods and the weather here where we live, but I haven’t said much about the beach, and it's possibly the best part. Raw, wild, and frequently windswept, it’s not your typical sandy, barefoot friendly beach. It is, however, one of the most diverse beaches I’ve ever been on, and one of the biggest perks of peninsula life. Oysters, clams, crabs, shrimp, salmon, driftwood…the list goes on. Three football fields worth of it, and that’s just the part that’s ours. At low tide, you can walk for miles and sometimes never see another person. When hubby and I got married 30years ago, we dreamed of living someplace where the forest met the beach, the best of our two favorite places to be. Sometimes, wishes really do come true.
