we just got back today from montauk. on tuesday the sea was rather wild. it was more wild than i think i had ever seen it. except maybe during a nor'easter. we had a nice time ringing in the new year with my mom and dad. i've actually unpacked already, and am now going to watch a christmas movie . . eloise at christmastime. happy 2012!
by day the blue will pale down into white where it touches the white of the land, after sunset it has a new circumference-orange, melting upwards into tenderest purple. but the core of blue persists, and so it is by night. then the stars hang like lamps from the immense vault. the distance between the vault and them is as nothing to the distance behind them, and that farther distance, though beyond colour, last freed itself from blue. -e.m. forster (a passage to india)

Those waves are incredible. I remember waves like that in the south of France once. Happy New Year to all of you.
