How can one image grab you from across the room? How is it that a complete stranger can generously just gift you what you secretly long for? An estuary is a place where fresh and saltwater mix. She definitely brings a freshness and is a salt of the earth kind of gal. This woman completely entranced me from the start. I imagined her in Europe on an unbearably hot summer day, stripping off her shoes, grabbing and hiking up her dress and creating quite a scandal with her intimate moves to cool off. Maybe even in those days showing an ankle was quite a scandal. She invites us to join in with her. Do you even dare to kick of your shoes, maybe this is holy ground.
