Blogging from Santa Cruz’s Twin Lakes Beach
Blogging from Santa Cruz’s Twin Lakes Beach after guest lecturing on EFT at Five Branches Acupuncture College. Way cool crowd, sharp as tacks. Wish I could have stayed longer, but needed my beach fix. It’s cool &overcast at the beach as it often is. A frisky brown seal poked his fine head out of the surf and whistled at me beseechingly. (Oh precious, I thought, if only I could!) He slides slowly beneath the waves, blinking huge, liquid ebony eyes sadly. Small children skate on boogie boards in the spume, floating, falling, laughing, running…
I find one of those rubber band bracelets the kids all wear now, gold in color and bearing the legend "Safety". A perfect interlace of bladderwrack is washed up at my feet like the sea god’s tribute necklace. A frond of sand and salt-encrusted wrack lies in the sand, topped by an errant tan gull feather. I add this to my bag and move on.
I left the beach reluctantly but with many gifts, wishing for a selkie’s skin. Stay tuned 4 the class audio…need to actually be at a computer for that! Enjoy the waves in your own day…
