This is dedicated to all teapotters for the positive effect our cards have on their recipients. I also got to dip my toes in the very cold Pacific Ocean at First Beach on the Olympic Peninsula while on vacation.

How inspirational. I love the shells and sand dollar (something we don't have here!). I find it hard to believe the Pacific could be colder than the Atlantic, LOL.
I always remember once being up in the mountains with a friend, and we looked down at the sunlit beach and thought a swim would be lovely. Of course, by the time we'd walked back down the mountainside to her house and then driven back to mine for my swimming stuff and then got to the beach - it was all in shadow. But having made the effort, we got in anyway.

Beautiful, Fran!! Did you find any seashells? I hope your vacation was wonderful! Yes, the pacific is a bit on the chilly side for swimming, toe dipping, that's okay! I love the sentiment you used!!
