The wild grasses on Perry’s Point are freakishly tall this summer. Most of it is topped with a feathery fringe that dances in the sun and sways in the breeze. I can stare at it for hours!
Fitting too, seeing as I live on the fringe of an island on the fringe of North America. 😉
Hi Jennifer – I love this and I like your analogy. I could also stare at this fringe 🙂

Will have to look up Perry’s Point. I’ve a penpal on Fogo Island. I thought that would be about the eastern fringe of North American civilization. 🙂

Oh, Jennifer, I feel the wind coming across the water and hear the rustle of the grass around my feet. You live in a beautiful place where the horizon goes on forever. I am glad that I was able to meet with you on that hill. Virtual is almost a good at being there. Hugs!

I was away for two weeks recently and I missed that ocean horizon like you wouldn’t believe! We are in our tenth year here now and have no regrets for making the move. Reading what you have written makes me realize you know exactly how I feel. 😊

I think a lot of plants have grown taller this year without our interference!

I believe you’re right. In many regions the lack of industry and therefore less pollution has actually given Mother Nature a boost.

I’ve always loved to watch the sea oats blow in the ocean breeze.

Up until about a decade ago, I thought grass didn’t grow higher than your ankles. I sure was wrong!

I did. I forget how or why but it would have been very sad if I didn’t figure that piece of the setting out.

Sea Oats! We have this on our beaches. It is unlawful to pick. Triple fringe! Good one, Jennifer.

Well, I learned something new today, thanks to you, Lois! I had to go look it up. It makes sense too because there’s lots of sandy beach nearby. Thanks!
