The cure for anything is salt water – sweat, tears or the sea ~ Isak Dinesen

Receiving a landmark from my friend PurpleButterfly and her main squeeze Tre, I wound up spending the better part of my day wandering the region Salt Water, which reminded me of days spent with my sister who lives in New England. Days spent at Crane beach just relaxing, browsing antique shops in Concord, Mass. and Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket Island day trips. If it wasn’t for the harsh winters I could live there, but no, I’m a three season gal and not a fan of winter…at all.

Salt Water was made for relaxing, whether it be alone or with a special someone. Quiet, out-of-the-way places to relax or dance, and views of the sea; always views of the sea as it kisses the shore. Thank you PB and Tre. Be kind to one another. TWMA 🙂

Heaven seems a little closer when you are near the ocean…

Inhale, exhale…

May all your blues be the ocean and sky…

The tide recedes, but leaves behind bright seashells on the sand. The sun goes down, but gentle warmth still lingers on the land. The music stops, yet echos on in sweet, soulful restrains. For every joy that passes, something beautiful remains ~ Unknown

At the end of the day, let there be no excuses, no explanations, no regrets ~ Dr. Steve Maraboli

As promised in an earlier post, I returned to The Coast of Melee Island and to my surprise a few changes have taken place. Much to my dismay the coffee shop I had spied on my last visit has disappeared but there are plenty of little nook and crannies to satisfy any shutterbug, including myself.

This Way

The Coast of Melee Island is a public beach and forest located on the region Ai Atoll and carries a G rating.

The Covered Bridge

The day of my visit was fairly busy as I counted fifteen avatars on the public side alone. Bokeh. and even.flow, stores that are new to me are located here as well. Of course I picked up a few demos that looked promising 🙂

The Lonely Sentinel

As I like to play with windlight each photo was shot using a different one (tweaked by me) and I must apologize for not remembering all the ones used. Fine Day and Coastal Sunset are two that come to mind and I promise to do better next time.

The Grass is Greener

This was the perfect shoot to get back into SL Travel 52. I have a lot of catching up to do and lots of places on my list to visit. If you would like to join Purplebutterfly’s SL Travel 52 you can get the 411 here. Remember…Be kind to one another. TWMA 🙂

Post Script: I only captured a small part of what The Coast of Melee Island has to offer by way of photography spots. For sure this gal will be making a return visit.
