As the rain and wind were making a statement on Monday

Monday was rainy, windy and dreary, but the waves and tide were fun.

Went by the back Shore and the Boulevard.  The tide was so high, falling off the greasy pole would be easy.

High tide

Walking the Boulevard the other day, notice how high the tide was with another hour to come in.  My thoughts were, if it was Fiesta time, not a far drop for the greasy pole walkers.

The Cut Bridge

Nice walk on the Boulevard before my shift at the visitors’ center.  Watched a couple of boats going through the Blynman Bridge Canal with many onlookers.

Pretty Little River

Little River at high tide looked so beautiful and peaceful on Wednesday.  Grateful to be able to visit the beautiful scenery in Gloucester.

Splash over on Stacy Boulevard

An hour and a half after high tide on Saturday.  Glad I bought the raincoat for my camera.

Waves on Shore Road

Three hours after high tide on Shore Road, Monday.  I think I am obsessed with stormy oceans.

Not a good idea to be so close to the waves

Low Tide

Took these from Shore Road near high tide

Beautiful day on The Annisquam and Little River

The tide was a late after afternoon tide on Saturday.  Rick and I went kayaking from Corliss Landing and headed towards Little River.  Amazing day, how lucky are we to be able to have this beauty in our neighborhood.
