I live near the mouth of the Columbia River and she pours out her concerns to an indifferent ocean that absorbs us all. Sometimes with calm and mirrored blue seas and sometimes with the chaos of turbulence and towering waves that have earned her the nickname "Graveyard of the Pacific."

Hi Tessa, you know how tug at the heart strings, and this is a nice derailment. I totally dig the Pacific pulse of the area Illwaco, Astoria, Long Beach, have spent a fair amount of time recreating there, we usually go to Cape Disappointment state park (used to be Ft Canby SP), sometimes Ft Stevens, with our mobile habitat unit. I can spend hours just watching the swells come in, like from the north jetty, just park on a rock and watch the swells hit the rocks just below Cape Disappointment light house, shooting water way up into the sky....
I have to believe it lowers one's blood pressure having the sound of the Ocean in the background...It's calming.
had just found this thread today, thanks for chiming in....
Cheers
