Beach ride

Waited on a cliff at Wonwell yesterday with Riverfiend and dogs. Camera poised for horses I knew would shortly hove into view – it being day for sponsored ride and perfect one at that. Whie we waited and watched the dogs splashing in low tide below I practised ballet moves and saw my reflection on the rocks or below ageless human with- arms extended moving woodenly. Age or out of practice? Shadows are very forgiving…

Also noticed disconcertingly was looking directly into son’s eyes if not ever so slightly . .up..? into them. Gulp. The day I dreaded and we joked about for so many years has arrived. Outgrown by my littlest boy..
