copp found a fun toy on the beach today.

  he's a curious dog, and the tide brings curious objects.
 

 i found a real old waltham fountain pen, but this one's stranger.
 

often i start taking pictures not knowing what i might be seeing. sometimes don't realize something until i see the photographs at home. 

but it dawned on me strong on the beach today what kind of toy copp had found. it was a reeal fun toy, like a sea cucumber, but not that real. it was just a toy.

copp often brings a toy from the beach all the way home, and i was glad today he chose an ordinary garden variety stick.
