It's a beautiful time of year in the Northeast. Mellow summer. A time when peace comes dropping slow. Our friend, Joan Shaw, from the laid-back isle of Kauai, sent us a video that will have you smiling. Lucas & Shadow Surf Session. It features Shadow, a Jack Russell Terrier, and his human bruddah, Lucas Angulo, a surfer-grom from
Hanalei, Kauai, catching some tiny waves at Retros in
Hanalei Bay.
Emily Dickinson has a poem, By the Sea which begins:
"I started early, took my dog,
And visited the sea;
The mermaids in the basement
Came out to look at me."
Freud wrote: "Where ever I go, a poet has been there first." Who would have guessed it was the Maid of Amherst who also wrote? I never saw a moor,
I never saw the sea;
Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
Way to go Shadow, Lucas, Emily too!!
