ALOHA !
Every morning,
the sand is beautifully prepared
for the day!
It's fun to walk on. . .
It doesn't stay that way for long. . .
In fact, it quickly gets interesting . . .
But who is this early Zen artist?
Ah! The Barber Surf Rake!
I like to call it the "Sand-Boni."
See more about it HERE
Zamboni info HERE
What a beauty!
The birds LOVE it!

I didn't know seaweed naturally came onto the beach (and could be smelly,) until I was told about the sand-boni. I must've thought the ocean made the nice smooth beach with it's waves when people were sleeping....DrumMajor
So utterly calming, beautiful.
sunrise, sitting facing the sea on this beautiful zen garden, and the birds adding their own caligraphy. Meditation. Ah, you truly live in Paradise.
Now I'm going back to read about sand-boni.

Love those Zamboni smoothers. That was a favorite part of the Jersey Devils hockey games I enjoyed the most. Watching the Zamboni - sure woulda liked to drive one.
Looks artistic
I love that sand-boni! Must be a wonderful job being out there early and making those marks.
I loved this post Claudia...it is a little like that here in the winter only the wind and clouds are our "snowboni" and our dog and forest creatures create the textured printing:-)
thank you so much for all of your kind messages, it means so much to hear from blogging friends even when I'm too tired to write back.

Amazing, I never knew a sand-boni existed :) The sand looks so peaceful, so inviting.
I love this!

Fantastic shots. Love the variety.
Very, very nice!Enjoy your w.e.!!!!

Very artistic indeed :-).
Wow, a beautiful sandy beach for an early morning stroll. I love to draw on the sand too, and watch the tide erase the pictures for me.
Semplicemente stupende!

This is one of my all time favourites of your posts. Love the raked sand, love the gradual increase in prints by a variety of beings. Mega thanks.
Love those bird tracks and the term sand-boni. :)
I love your pictures of the tracks in the sand - human, machine and wildlife. When we visit Virginia Beach in October we always see the machine that rakes the sand. I will always think of it as the sand-boni from now on :) Have a great week Cloudia.
This was a whimsical post, Cloudia. Loved the photos of the sand-art.
The sand tracks are amazing, very good captures.
What a fascinating sand! Very interesting images, Cloudia!
Is This the Hilton Hawaiian village?
Wonderful place, I was in Oahu and now I'm leaving Kawaii to go to Maui tomorrow morning. I love Hawaii
I say Aloha Cloudia you leave in a wonderful Islands

When I get the chance, damn rare this summer, I like to walk my favorite beach, Pawleys Island, South Carolina, and look at the grooves in the out-going tide carved in the sand.
Great pictures!
I love the beach in the morning
Brilliant!
The various phases and faces of the sand.
Kudos to the observation and eye for detail.
keep it goin;)
How lovely having a clean raked beach every day. :)
ALoha Cloudia ! Beautiful post as ever!
Tracks in the sand are like memories. They let you look back in time to what happened before.
What lovely beaches. We had much fun on Muskoka beaches last week. Stories and photos to follow! http://mymuskoka.blogspot.com/2011/08/bondi-village-resort-beachtime.html

This is the lagoon behind the Hilton Hawaiian Village; 'my' beach :)
Thank YOU for coming by today!
Lovely morning smiling sand..tQ for showing the "Sand-Boni". Just a thought could this be one of the 'culprit' in some fake crop cycle? haha.
Aloha shaloha, sista.
Thanks for your "land of wonders" comment. So true. But did you also see the Aug.6 post? The spiral is dedicated to you. :)
Thanks for visiting-
AND for the cool spiral fossil!
Great images. Not only in this beautiful post, but all throughout your blog.
