Trace and place the lace.

It was a doily handed down by three generations of grandmothers.

This means that it was crocheted in the early 1800’s.

The stories that we can file for the many people involved in this line of descendants, are legion, numerous and illuminating.

Swift and sure in the mist by the shore.

I knew the path.

It touched the sand-licking waves at the edge of the rocks, but never faltered by sharing the sea-level altitude.

An old empty house had a stone terrace at the same level.

Being by the sea had never been so true.

We are known by the breeze.
