It was a beautiful Friday afternoon walk on Shore Road.  Sky blue, ocean blue and warm air.  When I got back to my truck at Magnolia Landing, noticed the shadows on the Pier.

As the skies were clearing on Thursday, took a walk on Stacy Boulevard.  It was getting sunny and the Boulevard was inviting me for a walk.

Late April at Rafe’s Chasm

Took a walk out to Rafe’s Chasm on Tuesday.  There was whale activity out there.  The whales were very far out, did see some spouting.  So exciting to think that these beautiful mammals are so close.
