Field notes

At the waterline

Follow the edge of the bay and watch how each pocket of shelter changes the water.

Under the pines

Take the longer trail. Needles soften the footpath and open rock lets the wind back in.

After sunset

Stay long enough for the far shore to turn blue and the first lights to break across the bay.
