A Nor'eastern Mood

April is a damp month. Some significant things have changed in my life in between the drops of rain. But it's the sense of saltwater that I want to focus on today. I'm struck by the overwhelming urge to explore my Northeastern roots. To walk along a sandy path towards a wind-whipped beach, feeling the cool spring air dampen my face. To smell the salt, fish, and sea grass as they only exist in New England; tough yet vulnerable. These are my visions, tastes, and smells today. -l.o.d.
