On the last morning , I walked out to the water by myself . The sand was damp and firm high up the beach from the tide . Morning mist spread along the coast like a secret , the clouds hung low and thin like a lace hem over the mountain to my right , and a pink ribbon of sky wove between gray and blue sheets to herald the arrival of the sun .
