      Hi Margie –
      Thanks so much for visiting and lingering. I really appreciate it. I see from your bog that we have a similar aesthetic, perhaps it’s those low rays of our northern latitudes that does that. Thanks for the comments, this is a fledgling blog and I appreciate the supportive feedback.

    I miss those quartz granites. The basalt prevalent at the Oregon coast is so staid in comparison.

    Oh my goodness. I thought they were pig or boar snouts! So relieved that they are walnut shells. :)
