Horseshoe crab!!!Been out naturing in Massachusetts with my family.I find myself inspired by the nature and uninspired by the kitschy coastal towns (unless I transform disgust into inspiration, which is known to be possible).I miss California.Aside: jellyfish!!! (We think it's a lion's mane.)The next day, I went on a very beautiful hike through some coastal woods and swamps that reminded me of home... in my imagination I exchanged grassy dunes and salt marshes for scrublands and chapparal...Still it is nice to see what all this "Cape Cod" fuss is about, to plod around new biomes, to contend with the East Coast heat wave on the heathland, to end the day by sitting down at the pond watching the sunset.
