This was our view on Tuesday night, looking east towards Blake Island and West Seattle.
What do you think?
Not too bad? Roaring flames, high-tide waves lapping at the bulkhead,
sailboats coming in to tie up after a day of cruising Puget Sound,
an occasional salmon jumping...
Hot sun setting behind the Olympic Mountains while
sand pipers call out to each other, barely skimming the top of the water
feasting on early evening summer critters (bugs!)....
Great night to sit in lawn chairs close to the fire, while
breathing in salt air and driftwood smoke.
Holding hands and sipping red wine out of coffee cups
with our fingers sticky from burnt-blackened marshmallows,
crumbling graham crackers, melted Hershey's bars.
I would say, just about perfect...

Oh, it sounds and looks so good!! I can't believe that I never had a beach picnic..., not to mention a little fire!!!
Thanks Maya! Smores are the best!
I love where we live and what we have around us. The idea of a beach fire is just a wonderful idea. Might have to think of a beach to do that on soon.
Thanks Maya! :)

I agree - hoping to have one this weekend at our place.
It was so nice to see you - hope the rest of your visit is wonderful.
I love bonfires... particularly those on the beach! ♥
That looks like so much fun!!!!
I would love to have a bonfire on the beach:)
I love bonfires on the beach, I have fond memories of many from my childhood growing up in Southern California.
Wine, s'mores and holding hands, it doesn't get any better than that!
You are so right! Great shots. I can almost smell it! Pxxx
