salt & sea air! [a day at the shore]

on a trip to the shore today, i learned two things:

1. courtesy of ian, my certainty that the atlantic is INDEED muchmuch saltier than the pacific was confirmed, scientifically! here's the cementing proof :)

2. grasshoppers enjoy a mid-day float! well, this one had decided it would be an interesting activity to try...i rescued him, and ian christened him CORNELIUS! when i scooped him from the water, him became very attached, and proceeded to dry himself, most adorably wiping the water from his head and antenae with is teenie, tiny feet! wish i could have captured THIS! but, at least i have a lovely photo of the two of us, just before his release into the wild freedom of the avon beach...
