We finished up our feast just in time to enjoy the drum circle, which gathers every week at our local beach.

Check out my little chick groovin' to the beat (sorry about the end of the video).
When we left, I was covered with sand, flushed from the sun and exhilarated from a true feast for the senses. The ocean helped me reconnect to the rhythm of the season, while the rhythm of the drums created a powerful restorative energy that helped balance my body & spirit. Right now, I am in sync.
