Even on a gray day, the ocean will cure what ails you!

Nothing today to say about job-hunting or gardening.  We headed to Ft. Foster in Kittery, and for some reason, the clouds made it especially magical.  Kayaked over to Wood Island and found sea glass, saw a seal, and luxuriated in the bliss of everything but the moment falling away.  It was perfect.  In honor of my husband and Star Island, for which I am bound tomorrow, here's a quote from Celia Thaxter, Shoaler, poet, and gardener extraordinaire: 


There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart.


White sandy beaches have their place, but there is nothing like the exquisite character of the Maine coast!
