Dunes and Waves: Finding Calm Between Storms
Views from the Dunes
It might not feel like it this year, but there have been some breaks in the weather here and there. Enough, at least, for me to sit on top of “the dune” opposite our house a few days ago and take in the views.
It’s nice at this time of the year as the beach is quiet but there’s still some warmth now lingering. Perfect for a moment of calm to just chill and take in the views!
Surf Sessions
We’ve had some surf too. Morgan and I managed to get out on the water for a couple of days in a row.
The first session came after a day on campus for me. I caught the bus home in the early afternoon but started feeling travel sick, so I had to get off just before Glanwern. That left me with a 3-mile walk home along the beach. The surf looked great, so I was eager to get home and into the water. Morgan joined me, and what we thought would be a mellow session turned into something much bigger. The waves were larger and bumpier than expected out the back!
The next day it was much nicer if a little small. I’d been working all day again but popped over to the beach at 5 pm for some fresh air. As I did so I was greeted with small but lovely looking surf. So, off we went again, this time for a much mellower session catching some nice little waves together..
