Sept. 14, 2023

When it’s time it’s time. The lifeguard chairs, most of the stairs, and the footbridge are removed every year, and for this season it was at sunrise Sept 14. Rockport DPW is also on top of the storm prep ahead of this weekend’s Tropical Storm warning forecast. They work fast to beat the tides.

september 1,2 / schooner festival

I saw this beach chair and thought perfect chair for Schooner Festival weekend. Imagine chairs on the boulevard printed with custom vessels (iconic racers and current ones). The smoke in the sky again from fires in Canada.

september 8- Black SEa and black clouds then blue Sky, no rain or rainbow

When the sea is black, the photo with the blue sky pockets and the clouds like waves–the last sequentially–was unexpected. Note the scale of the Long Beach cottages vs. clouds.
