“Whenever we manage to love without expectation, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in Heaven.” – Rumi

In the spirit of doing less work on the weekend, I’ve turned off comments on this post so that we can just enjoy the pictures.

We spent a weekend up at our favorite beach on Whidbey Island. It was a wonderful reset from the busy pace of this fall.

The beach and the bird feeder

Trying to not look straight into the sun

Night walks and painting

Saying “hi” to heron and the sign of the week.
