Lathyrus japonicus (beach pea)

Ah, perfection! The Pacific Ocean on a sunny day, windsurfers doing their thing and Lathyrus japonicus blooming all over the place. I guess they don't call this plant 'beach pea' for nothing.

The photo (TY Sharon) is of Sabra fruit growing on prickly pear cacti in the Jerusalem sunshine last week. Israelis are called after the sabra because they are thought to be prickly on the outside and sweet on the inside. I think that you will find many of the news articles in this week's positive Israel newsletter are sweet on the inside.  So please have a look inside and below.

Windwalker

As I understand it, windsurfing is when the board stays on the surface of the water; its offshoot, windfoiling - as seen here - is when the board goes airborne, anchored only by a hydrofoil fin that protrudes from the bottom of the board.

On Tuesday we were in Petoskey and took a walk on the pier that juts out into Little Traverse Bay. A cool, robust wind kept most people off the pier, but the weather was custom-made for taking a flier in the bay.

Windsurfing, the Internet tells me, emerged in the 1960s from California's aerospace and surf culture. It became an Olympic sport in 1984.

Took a break from assignments to draw something for myself <3 went windsurfing today and had a great time, so that was the inspiration! About an hour in my little watercolor sketchbook with graphite. The reference is from Pinterest — if anyone knows the *real* source, please lmk!
