The Lady Friend was walking the dog on the beach near the Writer's Lair this morning when she spotted several impromptu sculptures the previous night's high waves and winds had scoured out of the beach, and she dashed inside to get a camera to capture them. The first was created atop an old wooden telephone wire spool, and the second on a stout branch jutting out from the shoreline. Within an hour or two both sculptures had disappeared in the sun and gusts.

Beautiful. The Lady Friend is a better photographer than you are, sometimes!
