The slow honey syrup pace of summer goes forth with beautiful weather, some blue skies occasionally and the pace and beauty that Oregon is renowned for and this week the kids and I headed out, but being that we were starving for lunch, ended up at a hole in the wall everything store in Ilwaco (WA) AND coffee shop. The coffee was very good and the food top notch. We made the low tide at the perfect time out at Beard’s Hollow, and although we did not find starfish (some rare ones have been spotted lately…) JJ found a baby Dungeness crab, a sea worm, an entire log of garter snakes, and ye old sea anemones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mother raccoon only comes up to eat if she has not procured food over the course of her daily foraging. She has to be pretty desperate, so although it looks like she’s used to begging at my door all day long, I rarely see her, but she doesn’t have a lot of fear of humans I suppose. I worry about her attacking my cats so normally she gets no food from me. She will eat anything however, old dead birds, apples, snakes, cat food of course, there isn’t much not on a raccoon menu. I have only seen her with one baby this year, but the drugglers<\/em>[TM] next door have been moving their garbage from one pile to other piles all summer this year so I’m not sure where they raccoons have settled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve been meditating outside in the morning after the gardening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The soft lull of summer has soaked into me and I have been really relaxed this week. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
