Skipping Stones at Sunset

Written by

Provincetown is a place of beautiful moments. Moments that you enjoy yourself and moments that you observe as others enjoy them.

This man walked the beach collecting the perfect stones for his purpose. He chose his spot as the sun set and the tide gave him a quiet surface for his game.

He practiced a skill he probably learned as a boy. He skipped stones as I watched from high above and some distance away. I hope he enjoyed the peace and beauty of his moment as much as I did.
