Welcome!
Hello, I’m Marcia. After three decades of teaching in Southern California, I traded traffic and freeways for Sea breezes and simpler rhythms along the Oregon coast. These days, I’ve brought that love for quiet, beauty, and intentional living with me to a new home in the city… where creativity still flows freely.
Here you’ll find me soaking up inspiration at the piano, wandering garden paths, journaling with a cup of coffee in hand, or capturing every day magic through my camera lens. Marcia’s Cottage by the Sea is a cozy corner for stories, snapshots, and reflections… rooted in my past, grounded in the present, and always unfolding.
Whether you’re here for a moment of calm, a bit of whimsy, or just a reminder to savor the little things… I’m so glad you stopped by.
