People teased me that there were no sharks what was the knife for. I didn't bring a knife to kill a shark for god's sake. You never know when you might get tangled up in something or other, maybe seaweed or some such shit. It just made sense to me. And there most certainly were sharks. Maybe not so many white sharks like you see today. The booming seal population has changed a lot, especially in Cape Cod waters and is infinitely more attractive to the white shark.

Massachusetts Bay has some unique properties I think. There's an underwater plateau, Stellwagen Bank, that makes a kind of nutrient filled more shallower area surrounded by deep water that is so attractive to tons of fish and mammals. I think it's what makes whale watching so awesome in the area.

I miss the ocean.

I too enjoy the ocean. It's been awhile since I last went down to the coast, but a friend of mine gave me an unusual birthday present last year. It's a device that plays an natural recording of sound waves, that the ocean makes as waves crash upon the shoreline. And ever so often, you can hear other sounds, like sea gulls crying as they ride the air thermals above the ocean. The sound recording lasts about 2 hours and I listen to it each night, before I fall asleep. It's so lovely to hear, each night.

I was just listening to the same type of track on youtube the other day. Instant relief. The sound of the waves is amazing therapy for the mind and soul.

The cello and the sea. Two of my favorite things. This will be my new go-to for those moments ...

I am forever walking upon these shores,
Between the sand and the foam,
The high tide will erase my footprints,
And the wind will blow away the foam,
But the Sea and the Shore will remain
Forever

“The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. On this shore, we've learned most of what we know. Recently, we've waded a little way out, maybe ankle-deep, and the water seems inviting. Some part of our being knows this is where we came from. We long to return, and we can, because the cosmos is also within us. We're made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.”

― Carl Sagan, in Cosmos

I was born in Newfoundland Canada and this island is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean. The salt air leaves little room for broiling temp. and humidity. Even the winter is not bone chilling cold. She provides fresh seafood of all types. Her sea breezes can hold you up when you walk on shore but not get cold. To look out on a clear day and watch the waves roll in or be mystified by the fog that gathers at times. I love the sea, she breathes power and beauty at the same time. Respect her and she will give her all. Ignore her warnings and she will seek her revenge. Yes this is very much speaking like the true anthropomorphic that I am.

The ocean is my happy place. We've rented a house on the beach for two weeks this summer. Can feel that groove already.
