The River Mouth

The Pettaquamscutt river mouth at the North end of Narragansett Beach is an absolute gem. In the summer you can find it packed with boats and sunbathers, but in the winter it’s pretty much just you and the birds, which given the proximity to the wildlife refuge there are plenty to observe. I love drifting through on my longboard to get a birds eye view.

On a particularly cold morning in November I took a stroll down to see how a recent storm had re-shaped this special stretch of sand. The waves were small and most of the sky was gray. But on the horizon, a small crack in the clouds began to refract this beautiful morning light. It got me thinking that even on the darkest days, it only takes is little light to make you shine.
