Although the rolling grasslands of Bradrick Family Farms nestled between wooded hill sides is what we know and love as home, one of the next best places is the ocean. Only forty-five minutes away, the majestic Pacific Ocean crashes its waves against the shore lines of Washington’s beaches. This glorious sight, where sea and sky meet, where the fresh sea breeze lifts a soaring kite, where the sand eagerly retains the impressions of moist toes or the message of some gleeful visitor—this is the scene we love so well to visit. It is always a refreshing time to relax with family and friends and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
An added joy, when visiting the sea shore, is to take a few of our horses. The tug of a kite string and the splash of wave around your ankles are wonderful delights, but nothing beats the freedom of horse and rider, moving as one, flying over the endless wet sand.
As the day draws to a close, it always seems that the sun and sea feel compelled to bid us farewell with a grand finale of color and beauty. After a day of soaking in the power of the sea and the majesty of its might it always causes us to remember and praise our God who created both land and sea.
“The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters,
yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.” Psalm 93:4
