13. Thank you again for photos that immediately instill peace and calm in viewers, like me, so worried about where things are headed here, there, and everywhere. A lovely respite, Susanne. I usually leave your posts open on my desktop much of the day for a mental refresher each time I sit down to my PC for daily multitasking. So many of us yearn for peace and quiet or at least if there are sounds those are lapping wavelets or whispering air through tree branches. Silence and silence enhanced by nature is underappreciated. Silence and silence enhanced by nature as called forth by evocative photography? WIN!

    • Aw thank you so much! 😍

16. Wow, this blog post is just beautiful! I can really feel the peacefulness and calm that you describe at Hood Canal. It sounds like the perfect place to go to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Thank you so much for sharing this with us, it’s really helpful to have a place to turn to when we’re looking for a little peace and quiet.
    I have to say, the way you describe the clouds resting low on the mountains and mingling with the smoke from wood stoves is just incredible. It’s almost like you can hear the silence and feel the tranquility just from reading your words. And the part about the forests being fresh and damp, and the oysters covering the beaches, just paints such a peaceful picture.
    I think this post will be really helpful for anyone who needs a little reminder to slow down and appreciate the simple things in life. Keep up the great writing, I’m looking forward to reading more of your posts!

    • Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I’m so glad you could feel the spirit of the place.
