The blue looks too blue, too dark to be real. Sand so wet it sticks to toes, fingers, hair. The water’s wicked bite, icy chills running up your frozen spine. Rocks dig into your soles and swimming is impossible. Beaches in Oregon, beauty you can’t touch but breathtaking, nonetheless. Weekly Photo Challenge–Sea […]
