People can always waste time people watching.

Sometimes Karen and I will be sitting somewhere waiting for something, and 'people watch'. We see two people interact and then try to guess the scenario behind their being where they are now. This practice is usually more fun when the two are totally different. Like an old, well dressed man, accompanied by a buxom girl, with 4" spike heels, and a short red dress. But this is too obviously a man treating his granddaughter to coffee. The photo above is a little more complicated; we can't imagine what this beautiful girl and her brothers are doing with this Bracero! I mean, can it really be like my favorite movie, Beverly Hills Chihuahua.

I don't know what locale you and Karen are sitting or what you're smoking, drinking, or toking, but you have too vivid of an imagination! Get back to your movie!

If I have a good imagination, why can't I fit the boat into the story?

it was the typical northern california day, overcast with a slight hint of moisture in the air. The air was fresh and crisp and you could feel the mist of the ocean as the wind whipped the spray from the breaking waves.
The tide was high but there was still a sliver of the beach exposed. A boundary of safety
As the waves hit the shore, you could hear the rocks tumble back to the ocean to expose the lavers of gravel and the unusual layers of striations that brought out the beauty that had been hidden for a thousand years.
Among the gravel and small stones that blanketed the beach, were precious little gems that were hidden and smooth like glass.
Among those precious stones there seemed to be an unusual beauty of a newly married young family that had 2 precious treasures of there own.They were in the protection from the elements by the love and nurturing of the ones that held them more precious than the stones that covered the beach. They would protect those precious ones for the rest of their life. Even if it meant climbing aboard the vessel that was prepared to take them away from harms way and forsake all they possessed.
