clouds

I was running errands around town today (using the phrase "running errands" makes me feel very adult, just in case you were wondering) with my younger brother and we stopped at Dowses Beach in Osterville on the Cape. It's a cool beach in particular because it has this awesome jetty that you can walk out on and at the end of it you're basically surrounded by water. It was windy and cold and the water was calm and at low-tide. The lack of waves and biting air gave a serene and peaceful energy, and I watched a few birds bob softly in the water. Then I glanced up and saw a marshmallow sky. I don't think I've ever seen the sky look this way before. Anyways, here's a picture my brother Mike took with his iPhone. We really do live in a beautiful world.
