walk with me wednesday

P1030089

This unseasonally beautiful weather has kept people outdoors.  Usually, in January, I might see one other person walking on the beach.  Not so, Sunday could have been  cut from October.  There have been years when I could walk on the frozen bay by now.  This winter the grebes and mallards are sharing open water in the salt marshes with Canadian geese.  The gulls look fat and happy.

    Bizarre weather – truly. I would be missing the snow, except this year we actually HAVE snow. Supposed to be down in the minuses this weekend here in the valley which is VERY cold for us.

  4. Oh damn. Now I really want to go to the beach. I think it’d be a bit chillier today, though.

  5. Thanks for the great walk, I needed that! Very unusual weather indeed this year!

  6. You’re so lucky to live near the water. I really like that last shot.

  7. I love watery photos. Now that I have my own camera I can treat all the people who don’t live near water to shots of the Pacific. Probably not ’til later this year though.
    Thanks for sharing your walk! My favorite photo is the 2nd one from the bottom. Very artsy.

  8. Beautiful pictures! Although it would be freaky seeing open water in the middle of January.

  9. Mmmm… so lovely. I have a sudden craving for a walk on the beach.

  10. The picture of the wavering sand is exceptional. It would be wonderful to walk on a beach.

    You live in such a beautiful place. Your pictures make me wish I were back at the Oregon coast now – but soon I will be.

  12. I can’t tell you how refreshing your pictures were for me. Thank you for sharing. :0)

  13. Great photos Judy, they make me want to take a deep breath of that fresh salty air! The texture, the colors, all beautiful!

  14. Beautiful pictures of the sand and water. Makes me miss our trips to the Atlantic coast.
