Nelle prime luci camminavi veloce
trasparente come l'aria del mattino
gaia respiravi i dolci profumi dei fiori di rugiada ancora bagnati
In quel silenzio solo i tuoi passi si udivano
mi voltai a guardare
e il tuo sguardo incrociai
abbagliante come il sole nascente
Dal giardino di fronte rubai un rosso fiore
e delicatamente lo posai sulla scia del tuo profumo
per fermare il ricordo di te e di quel primo sole
Another shot from the black sand beach...can't resist trying to get the wave at the full extent as it crashes against the rocks..this is why I love rugged shorelines..

The brilliant colors of summer now fade into subtle tones of reverie in my October garden. Autumn is a season to contemplate all that has gone before and savor the time that is still ahead. Chocolate Cosmos, one of my favorite autumn flowers with its rich & striking color, personifies the autumn season of life.
"Reverie is not a mind vacuum. It is rather the gift of an hour which knows the plenitude of the soul."
~ Gaston Bachelard
I went home and kept thinking about this one-of-a kind object, wishing I had brought it home for my garden, sure it would be gone with the tide by the time I was able to go back. A week later I went back and searched for it, determined to carry it back no matter how far it was. I was surprised to find it again, but in a different location. However, it must have weighed about 200 lbs, so saturated with ocean water, I could hardly move it at all. Disappointed, but also curious how we have the desire to own beautiful or interesting things. Photos and the memory of it will have to suffice.
In 1927 Charles Lindbergh was invited to come to Vancouver. He declined saying, "There was no suitable field to land on."

The Coughton estate has been owned by the Throckmorton family since 1409. The estate was acquired through marriage to the De Spinney family. Coughton was rebuilt by Sir George Throckmorton, the first son of Sir Robert Throckmorton of Coughton Court by Catherine Marrow, daughter of William Marrow of London.]The great gatehouse at Coughton was dedicated to King Henry VIII by Throckmorton, a favorite of the King. Throckmorton would become notorious due to his almost fatal involvement in the divorce between King Henry and his first wife Catherine of Aragon. Throckmorton favoured the queen and was against the Reformation. Throckmorton spent most of his life rebuilding Coughton. In 1549, when he was planning the windows in the great hall, he asked his son Nicholas to obtain from the heralds the correct tricking (colour abbreviations) of the arms of his ancestors' wives and his own cousin and niece by marriage Queen Catherine Parr (see gallery drawing). The costly recusancy (refusal to attend Anglican Church services) of Robert Throckmorton and his heirs restricted later rebuilding, so that much of the house still stands largely as he left it.
After Throckmorton's death in 1552, Coughton passed to his eldest son, Robert. Robert Throckmorton and his family were practicing Catholics therefore the house at one time contained a priest hole, a hiding place for priests during the period when Catholics were persecuted by law in England, from the beginning of the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. The Hall also holds a place in English history for its roles in both the Throckmorton Plot of 1583 to murder Queen Elizabeth I of England, and the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, although the Throckmorton family were themselves only indirectly implicated in the latter, when some of the Gunpowder conspirators rode directly there after its discovery.
The house has been in the ownership of the National Trust since 1946. The family, however, hold a 300-year lease and previously managed the property on behalf of the National Trust. However, in 2007 the house reverted to management by the National Trust. The management of the property is renewed every 10 years. The current tenant is Clare McLaren-Throckmorton, known professionally as Clare Tritton QC.
The house, which is open to the public all year round, is set in extensive grounds including a walled formal garden, a river and a lake
