The Sea



No pessimist
ever discovered the secrets of the stars,
sailed to an uncharted land,
or opened a new heaven to the human spirit.
Helen Keller

The first picture was taken on
a cold day in February of this year.
That is how the Atlantic normally looks.
The second picture was taken July 2011 as Hurricane Irene
passed by a few hundred miles off of our
coast.
The ocean was much angrier.
Same pier.
Anastasia Island near St Augustine FL

  7. Angry winds sure can change a peaceful scene, can't they?

    Hope you weren't badly affected by Debby, Abby.

    We're always thinking of our friends who are in harm's way.

    Have a happy weekend, girlfurriend :)

    Hugs,

  12. We live close by to the same ocean quite a bit farther north on a large bay. The mood of the sea can change very quickly. Love your photos.
