Already my August project could be considered broken as the picture was taken this morning before we drove to the ocean and the walk was taken this afternoon on the beach where I had not brought my cell phone or camera, so could not take pictures. I really felt quite free since I had nothing but a towel and a magazine . Joe even took responsibility for the car key. We collected a few pretty shells and I thought how liberating it was to already have more than enough nice shells at home, so any that one finds are a bonus. With all this freedom in my life today, I will declare by fiat that the project is not, in fact, broken, just adapted to circumstance. Author's perogative.
