Dragonfly Whispers

Every year, one of my favorite memories with my Grandmother, on August 15th.

She gave me such a love of the ocean and beach. Always “down the shore” I think that’s why to this day, my favorite place in the world to be is walking along the edge of the water, lost in my thoughts. It’s the only place I feel like I can release, balance and regenerate myself for whatever reason. Or just sitting near the edge of the water early in the morning before the beach gets crowded, or late afternoon when it’s quiet….you think living near the beach I would go more often? 🤔 Something not quite right with this picture. I don’t want to lay on the beach and sunbathe all damn day but I do miss walking on the beach…maybe I need to start doing that again!

🌊 The blessing of the ocean is a tradition that dates back to 15th century Italy. It's often performed on the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary on August 15th, and involves people putting their feet in the ocean to experience the water's healing properties. The tradition is believed to have started when a bishop threw his ring into the ocean during a storm on the Feast of the Assumption, calming the waters. 🌊

A lot of you know my friend Taren Marvets from Wits End Tumbling Designs, some of you are even lucky enough to have received one of her masterpiece tumblers as gifts. I have her “Strange And Unusual” tumbler on my untouchable shelf (that’s the shelf of tumblers you don’t use because they are that good-they serve as inspiration to you, to hope one day you’ll be somewhere near their caliber) I only have 3 people on that shelf.

🔲 Anyhoo, Taren is EXTREMELY generous with gifting her time, tutorials, free files for years now, maybe show her some thanks back for all her generosity….she is having a HUGE SALE on her digital files and RTS tumblers right now.

So cool! Inspiration comes from everywhere.

They say since construction was done it hasn’t been pink since 2017 (not sure if that is true or not)

Lake Hillier, located on Middle Island in Western Australia, is renowned for its bright pink hue. This distinctive color results from the presence of microorganisms such as the micro-algae Dunaliella salina and halophilic bacteria. Unlike other colored lakes, the water of Lake Hillier retains its pink color even when collected in a container. This fascinating natural phenomenon attracts many visitors and researchers eager to understand and admire this natural wonder. Surrounded by dense vegetation and the blue ocean, the striking contrast of this pink lake makes it a remarkable visual spectacle.

Yes!! If only we could 🙏🏻🩶 💫
