Stone and I made an afternoon trip to a local beach. This was not a manicured or cared for beach, simply beach access from a gravel road near us. There did not seem to be too much traffic ever at the spot, as there is, I would guess, decades of litter accumulated here and there. Some I assume washes ashore and some I assume was dumped. So needless to say, not a place one goes without protection over the feet. However, once you look past the plastic, it is a nice place to stroll and listen to the water greeting the land, or vice versa.
On our way out, it could have been a scene from Alice in Wonderland - if I would have followed the rabbit. We were in the truck, heading back to the main road; when a rabbit darted into the road - nothing new to me there. Then it sat up, seemingly acknowledging me heading toward it ... got on all fours and headed directly for us. I smiled, then wondered it this was a suicide attempt - thus I stopped. The rabbit went directly under and I looked in the rear view to see if he/she kept going ... a few moments pass and sure enough it kept on going a few yards beyond the rear bumper, then stopped, turned and again sat up looking back at us. Finally it hopped back into the bush. I had thought that perhaps we were being invited to follow; however, that journey will have to be on another day :).
Images were updated in Stone's album and the "On foot" album, enjoy.
