Gray and mid 40's but the tides were right so we headed to the island.
We started out on the west shore at low tide
Some beach art - Kelley didn't seem interested
Sticks and leaves
Leaves and Seaweed
Kelley decided to be in this one
Further along the shore
and more seaweed
More leaves on the beach
We turned onto the Green Trail headed for the east shore via the Homestead Trail
There was a small stream for Kelley
Some ferns stay green
East shore of the island - tide is still low
Into the water once more before we head to the car.
Not a bad hike in spite of the dreary weather. Some interesting things on the beach. Kelley did well and seemed to enjoy the change of pace. 1 1/4 hours
Love the shots of your coastline!

DeleteI've heard that seaweed is supposed to be beneficial in the garden--have you ever tried any? I always wondered about the salt in it--if that would affect the soil in any way.
ReplyDeleteAnyway--lots of interesting stuff today.
I bet living near the ocean, you've seen some really cool stuff. What's the neatest thing you ever found beachcombing?
Hi Sue- seaweed is used in gardens here and you can find bags of it at garden supply places -I've wondered about the salt too. The Gulf of Maine doesn't have the variety of shells and things I have seen on other coasts and I don't know why that is. On Sears the seaweeds and rock formations are most interesting to me.
