The Coastal Waterway, Part IV
My wife and I made our way to the lookout after visiting the water's edge. It was mid-afternoon at this point and there was still not a cloud in the sky. The cool and crisp late-winter day had warmed ever so slightly and we were ready for some shade and above-sea-level views.
This is the conclusion of our coastal waterway journey.
After retracing our steps back up the dock and boardwalk, we moved south towards the lookout. We were greeted by little white flowers on some kind of bushes. (I do not know all of the flora around here. Sorry.)
I did a little more "barking." That's what I will call my shots of tree bark from now on. (Bookmark this for reference, if you please.)
Just a few more steps...or...planks on the ramp? A few more footsteps, but not steps like a staircase. There were no staircases. This is nature!
We arrived! And this was our view, looking to the northeast, east, and southeast.
The first two images here are views of where we had just been.
There was a wall on the right of the lookout blocking the view to the south. I had to stretch out around it to get this shot. It's a little washed out from the bright sunlight, but I managed to salvage it...mostly.
I saw this and said, "nice post." I tried to upvote it, but there are no upvotes in nature, unfortunately.
Just passing back through...
Our journey was winding down and we headed back to the car. This is where our day on the trail began, crossing that very bridge.
I tried one more time to get under a little bit of shade.
Didn't work.
I think these colors complement each other well. Do you agree?
And here it is...the moment you've all been waiting for!
It's a selfie of me!
I think I did that right. Is that how the kids are doing selfies these days?
That wraps up my A Walk in the Park series for now. With summer starting up, I will probably start a beach series...if I can ever get out there. My walks in the park will probably resume in the fall when the weather is cooler again and not as rainy. I do have a few trips planned this summer, so I might have a couple of summer walk collections.
And even more exciting news: It was time for an upgrade from my Canon Rebel Xti (which I rarely use), so I have a new camera being shipped to me as I type this! Now my picture quality will hopefully improve dramatically! I can't wait to try it out and show off my new photos! I should have it by Monday.
Thanks for reading and viewing!
