"Only Worry is the Tide Going to Reach my Chair"

Went down to the beach here in Lincoln City, Oregon, just after sun up this morning to catch the low-low tide. After visiting here for close to 40 years in the same beach house, I've never seen the tide low enough to get out to the big rocks that line the beach here.

As I watched, Zac Brown's lyrics, "only worry in the world is the tide going to reach my chair," came floating through my head so I went back to the house, grabbed my chair and my sketching equipment. What a joy to sit quietly and sketch, the "only worry is the tide going to reach my chair."

Of course, to match the lyrics I had to add the sun. The problem with that is that early in the morning here on west coast that means the sun is to our backs when looking west....oh well.
