Quote from today's newsletter from the order of bards ovates and druids

"Keep Close to Nature's heart...and break clear away, once in a while and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods.  Wash your spirit clean"

~John Muir

So glad your Nanny gifted you in this way Vlada, she sounds like a wonderful person to have had in your life.  My Nan as I called mum's mum had a gift for gardening and I remember well her apple pies.  My dad's mum I didn't see often as she lived further away but I think she liked cooking.  

My nearest beach is about 40 miles away, so I think that's why I love to go to visit the narrowboat at the marina....water is so relaxing.... we even get waves on the canal around Bridge 80!  Wales was my parents go to place, mostly North Wales and sometimes the Wirral coastline when I was a youngster.  

Crafting is a good way to enjoy nature and bring on the memories....I have a dish of stones which hold past times and even bits of dried seaweed and the odd crab leg!  

In my memories for now Ametrine xx

Oh yeah beach memories, love going to the beach and I go often, just to unwind, walk the sand barefoot, get fresh air in my lungs... as a kid I was like you then Julie, everything came home, smelly or disgusting, my poor Nanny she had her limits, but she did let me bring stuff home that we all could make wind chimes with, shells, dried seaweed & drift wood mostly & any other oddity that would look good tied to strings, and we'd spend the next day making them, oh fun. I still like making stuff, I know it was she who bought out my artistic craft side within nature out in me..

Yes, the smell, my mum and dad didn't much enjoy the crabs legs and shells and bits of seaweed I used to pick up in my little bucket, but I had a nature table and everything was arriving there, so much fun...I had many a smile when I found a stone glossed up by the sea, such excitement.  Last beach holiday I had was on the Isle of Man, it was the first time I found a lovely piece of bottle green glass....a new treasure to hold

yes, and the smell, the wind, the elements, this is so intense and precious!

they are little treasures for sure and they hold good memories of trips to the beach and walking on the sand Ametrine
