Cloud rocks, wispy winged clouds, and me on cloud 9 reading your newsletter! I loved this escapism and comfort in your words and drawings Coco! 🌈❤️

When I started beachcombing at Ebey's Landing, black rocks with bold white lines were the ones to find. They disappeared, and I then began to notice white rocks with black marks, which stood out against the sand. I picked one up and instantly saw images of characters. It was a huge discovery, and I've been finding them ever since. As I mentioned in my video, you have to look at many "cloud rocks" to find the ones that have hidden imagery. It's a fun treasure hunt!

Happy New Year. Your walks look so inspiring. I can’t imagine how amazing it must be to have that on your doorstep.

Hi Tracey :-)

Happy New Year to you, too.

Ebey's Landing is on Whidbey Island, about an hour's drive north and a quick ferry ride from where we live in Seattle if the traffic is light. We love to go up there for a few days at a time. It is pure creative inspiration, restorative, and peaceful.

Happy creating! I love seeing what you are doing, especially with Jehane's Golden Thread prompts.

Sounds like the perfect spot and so amazing that it's not too far away from your home!

Lovely to read your posts an watch your videos again!

Speaking of fly dreams, I had one many years ago and it was the best feeling ever!

Thanks, Carina. I always appreciate hearing from readers like you! Flying dreams are the best and I wish that we could schedule them up to happen every week.
