“I have made friends with the sea; it has taught me a great deal. There is a kind of inspiration in the sea. When one listens to its never-ceasing murmur afar out there, always sounding at midnight and mid-day, one's soul goes out to meet eternity.” Not quite Anne but we have been liking L.M. Montgomery’s style
Sky Watch Friday is the best fun, meeting bloggers from around the world who share their view of the sky. This photo was taken on the north coast of NSW Australia.
Found a couple more links for Anne of Green Gables and Lucy Maud Montgomery. Canada’s Confederation Centre for the Arts hosts a site on Montgomery’s works including a peek into her Victorian style scrapbooks.
The University of PEI (Prince Edward Island) also hosts an interesting site on Montgomery’s works.

The water looks cold. But I'm still tempted to dip my toes in and skip like a child.

Hello sweet friend I am just coming by catching up since arriving home from our dream trip in Europe!

climate.
Loved looking at your sky watch images and more!
I hope that you enjoyed your Thanksgiving down under because I know your roots are Canadain! hugs NG xo

Just lovely. And although not from "Anne," I love a lot of L.M. Montgomery's writings, so this fits perfectly!
Love your fascination with Lucy Maude Montgomery. She once lived in a hamlet close to where I live in Ontario and this year the town hel special Anne of Green Gables celebrations.
Happy Sky Watch!
I love your header too. When I viewed it large, I saw there were a couple of guys fishing! How cool.
Thank you for your kind comments.
This will be the last Anne quote as we seem to have run dry now. The Green Gables’s stories are set in the beautiful Prince Edward Island, part of the Maritime region of Canada where I am from.
Hope you have all enjoyed the Anne series, it was a great way to celebrate her birthday but there are lots of other great quotes to look forward to from other authors.
As always the photos are set to click to enlarge in respect of my dial up friends.

I am friends with the sea too. You can never learn to much. Such a peacful image. Nthing better than a walk along an empty beach
This is a beautiful calming photo. I like your words of wisdom with the post.
Happy SWF.
Nice shot and thanks for the Montgomery pointers.
I think I would just enjoy being in your photo...so nice when enlarged!
Pearl: What a neat view of the bridge and the sea going into a neat sky. I do hope to see you on My World because your area is special.
I'll see if I can find that other singer.

Lovely skies - a well framed image!
Lovely area northern NSW. I have lived a long time in the Northern Rivers area. Beautiful sky one would like to touch.
I saw your shadowbox it is exquisite. You are such a great artist.
It's always nice to find others who have "made friends with the sea." Happy SkyWatch.

What a beautiful quote and how fitting with the picture. Love the water and hope to one day live closer.
Lovely photo once again and I've so enjoyed catching up on all your crafty shares too!
The framed leaf with the calligraphy is stunning!
Wow, this beach photo is very, very familiar to me...I grew up about 20 minutes from here on a little dairy farm and spent lots of time in this little beach...The bridge was a lot different back then though (LOL)...Thanks for taking the time to drop by my blog I really appreciate it...Luv c xx
