Does anyone know if this line of rocks is man-made, and if so, who did it and when? Likewise with these sticks in the sand. They’ve been there a long time, are they remnants of an old dock? But they go in the wrong direction.
Awesome for the couple, awesome for the rest of us, imagining their moment. Hope they have a great time, and one day tell their kids about this!
Tonight is the first night of Passover, and Jewish people all over the world gather to observe the holiday with a Seder, which tells the story of the exodus from Egypt and the flight toward freedom. The ritual of the Seder answers this question: Why is this night different from all other nights?
Can’t you just picture the answers tonight, from every place in the world where a Seder is being held. LOL!
There is a Yiddish term, sh’vach, which means something like “good enough”. Tonight, my Seder is a sh’vach seder. No tables put together to seat 24, no silver polished or linen pressed, no help in the kitchen, no cooking and baking for a week, no joy as the youngest haltingly shows off her or his reading skills by asking the Four Questions. Just FaceTiming, and a lot of laughs as we’ll chime in with “Why This Night is Different From All Other Nights”!
And for the record, this isn’t the first time a crudely drawn shank bone has appeared on this Seder plate.
Happy Passover!
If you didn’t get to the beach today, here’s a moment of glistening wavelets. In person, it looked like spun gold.
The pilot whale that washed up on Little Island in West Falmouth is being left in place to decompose. I was surprised there were no buzzards, gulls, coyotes, having a go at it. It was eerily quiet. A time to reflect.
