on the beach, finale

rounding up the last of our beach pics from panama city. 

it is so odd to post these as hurricane irma is hurtling toward florida, leaving destruction in its wake, and as the western states rage in fire and ash falls from a hazy sky in seattle. incongruous is probably the word.

thank you, florida, for sharing your stunning beaches with our family this summer (and for emily's amazing tan. no charge.) thank you, southerners, for your unparalleled hospitality. thank you, mother nature, for not as yet wiping out all of humanity. we can do better, i promise. 

stay safe out there.
