Life is a Beach

Lotsa wave action!


Two weeks left to the Summer season here on the Cape, n I finally made it to my fav Beach spot within two hours of high tide- Yay! It was late in the day after 3 pm, so the lot attendant who usually collects $2 for residents parking left for the day as I arrived. Score!
I used up my film n decided to get it done on the way home for ya all to see what I've been tryin to get to all year.
...
BTW- This spot is directly across the waterway where Ellen's Grandmother's cottage is located. It's also very close to the spot Ellen visits on her "Mini-vacations."

This was the first Cape beach I used to walk the shoreline to as a teen-ager of fifteen, even on my first week-end trip here from the city with my friends. They had a "Cape House" right down the beach from here.
The beach at their house was so rocky, I broke my toes many times....Ya had to go down the bluff cliff on these horribly un-even ricketty wood and sometimes rock steps, about three flights high. It was pretty dangerous back in the day when ya consider we were chugging lotsa alchohol n trying not to fall off. I remember having to crawl up them loaded in the dark from the beach once, too (only tried that one time) It was pretty scary!
Wish those were my biggest worries now...
...
I loved this town so much I decided to move here when I was 18, n haven't lived outside the town limits yet. I've so far managed to make it to this Fav beach a minimum of once per summer all these years.
I'm sure ya can see why.
...
I don't stay the entire day at the beach like other people. I get there, sit a few minutes, go swimming about a half-hour, get out, dry off a little in the sun n breeze, then leave. Usually about an hour spent there. I see no sense in baking all day, n never have that kind of time anyway.
...
I've got many more pics of other stuff to post up later, so stay tuned.
...
I hope you all get a quiet hour somewhere you can rejoice in the beauty of nature n unwind very soon...
