Lonely Surfer at Good Harbor Beach

On Friday it was very gray and misty at Good Harbor Beach.  Saw one surfer out on the waves.

Eternally Optimistic waiting for waves

On Thursday the waves were awesome and then flat.  A surfer trying to find the perfect wave.

SATURDAY MORNING SUNRISE SURFER

Surfer racing to catch the waves.

The surfer ran up so unexpectedly that I don’t have time to pull back my lens, but I like the images anyway.

Singing Beach

Driving by Singing Beach stopped to see what the beach looks like.  Lots of rocks on the soft sand.  Here is a surfer diving into a wave and the Hiram Walker House in the background of a wave.

Thanksgiving Morning Surf

 

Thanksgiving morning I took an early morning walk to relax before all the craziness started. It reminded me to be extra thankful for the wonderful place I live.

The light we have on Cape Ann is amazing and everyday it’s a little bit different. It was nice to  have the Thanksgiving break, where I had time to enjoy the mornings a little more, rather than my usual rush to work and sitting in 128 traffic.

Sunday Surfing in Hoop Pole Cove

Went for a walk on the Atlantic Ave path wrapping around Andrews Point and what did I spy but two surfers in wet suits standing on the granite looking at the waves.

But  where is the other one? Not sure how he did it but one of them got out there. I was running up to the house to get the family to witness craziness and missed exactly how he did it. (I also got my cell phone so I could call the Rockport FD when they bashed their brains on the rocks.)

To the left is Hoop Pole Cove where the lone surfer ended up. He rode some amazing waves then somehow exited stage left. Coming up on low tide the rocks were slick black. I’m still a little surprised I wasn’t making a phone call. (Click on pick for larger.)
