A few pictures on our last night

We were supposed to leave today but the weather on Friday was just beautiful that we extended our stay by one day. We will go back tomorrow and hope the ferries are not too busy on a Sunday afternoon.

We were out very early Friday for a walk in a 0.0 foot tide. I love to walk the beach in a really low tide. You can go places that you can't usually get to because of the surf and water.


This is a view from a part of Cox Bay that we could not walk to unless the tide is really low. Usually this bit of beach is under water. There is a little bluff above the beach has a few houses built there. Rumor has it (on fairly good authority) that John Travolta has built a house up there. That's my story and I'm sticking to it -- LOL


The Starfish and Anemones are easy to see with the low tide





A picture of Jim attempting to do a bit more fishing for the Surf Perch. Needless to say - none were caught.



Here is quite the picture of Jenny, exhausted after about 4 or 5 hours on the beach. She also got to have another romp in the water with her pal Monty.



And finally a picture of a couple of Dear Jane blocks. I finally finished the A-11 block ( 37 pieces!!) After finishing that one I got another one finished yesterday and I am working on my 4th block.

Oh Oh -- dog is whining to go for a walk.......

  8. I'm glad you got an extra day! I knew it would be hard to leave that gorgeous spot. Imagine being lucky enough to live there whenever you wanted to - maybe next door to John. =)

  10. I have never seen live star fish before. I didnt realize their color! I love the pics of the doggies. Reminded me of (and this is soooo American!) Gidget and Moondoggie! Do you know who they are? Beachtime sweethearts in the 60's.
