And here they are at 6pm last night.

But this was the sky a few minutes before-

New England weather!

Kite Surfers on the Beach

Saturday at Good Harbor. The kites were huge and the wind it was ablowin’! Notice that one guy had no head covering! The water temp is still in the 40’s. Ouch!

Spring at Niles

Posted on by Sharon

I took my first bike ride of the season yesterday to Niles Pond. Heading out toward the retreat house was so peaceful. A turtle struggled up a rock to sun himself. One of the swans took off over the pond. The wind was right, and the flap of his huge wings could be heard clear across the water. On my way back, a great egret spread its huge white wings and landed on a rock on the edge of the pond. The mallards quacked seeking their mates. The pond is a world in itself. I am a grateful observer.     —Sharon
