This photo reminds me of the film trailer I saw yesterday for Girls Rock!

Aaaaahhhhhhh! Wow, that does feel good.
For some reason, this reminds of the Doonesbury when one of the girls in Joanie's daycare announced the birth of her sister by saying, "It's a baby woman!"

and one day, hopefully, they return to people screaming with joy in the sand. :-)
I love this pic-the wild joyful abandon. I am open to more of that in my life.

"Women begin as people who scream in the sheer joy of sand".
What a wonderful phrase! Sounds like the beginning of my favourite poem (yet to be written).
Joy,
Arne

I love both the photo and the title.

This picture in and of itself is an absolute scream of joy... beautiful work.
