Last weekend I went to the coast with some friends from the Emerald Valley Regency Society and we had a lovely picnic on the beach at Tierra Del Mar near Pacific City, Oregon.
I had a jaunty new bicorn, and with my blue dress and red spencer and cape, I looked very French Revolution.
It was a gorgeous day for a picnic. Saturday was warm and sunny, with just a light breeze. We were lucky, because on Sunday there was a fierce wind and even some rain.
As we strolled down the strand, we were enveloped by a fog so dense we couldn’t see more than a few yard in any direction. It was deliciously spooky, like we could step out the other side and be transported to another time and place- Regency England, perhaps.
The ocean was swirling around on the beach, creating islands and peninsulas, and lovely safe pools to wade in.
After a long walk, a little rest was in order for some.
How wonderful to relax on the sand with good friends and good food. Not to mention the fun of dressing up. It was a glorious day altogether!
I thoroughly enjoyed this post ... do you think that you may have lived in that time in England? I often wonder why we are so attracted to certain times in history.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your day.
Happiness always.
