Could everyone write one simple essay about something that once happened in Saltaire…that they saw or were a part of…and put it on one big website? Somebody should collect a lot of stories before we all forget. Otherwise it is like a line in “On The Beach” : The history of the war that now would never be written.” -(JO'H)

I must go down to the seas again
to the lonley sea and the sky
And all I ask it tall wave
And board to ride her by

(apologies to Maesfield)

ANN GOLUB REPORTS FROM THE BEACH: High tide is about an hour away and the beach has weathered the surf well - more sand has actually been added to the beach - the snowfencing that remains is buried deeper as is the one volleyball post ( the other one was removed yesterday morning) - The lifeguard stand and the post surrounding it were moved off the beach last evening - they are not in today's photos but were not swept away. This is the last high tide we have to worry about the storm has passed and is north of us.
