The Cave


At one end of the three mile beach that curves itself into St. Martins sea side is The Caves... This is a little sketch of the middle cave...

The caves are a well known landmark, that have been hollowed out of the red sandstone bluffs by the unending tides.... it is intriguing to see and feel the majesty of the tides forces...

Evidence of geographical upheaval is obvious... through the steep, tilted angle of the distinctive colored layers of sand and stone...

Time has left its mark ... and continues to reshape the landscape...
