At the beach

  1. Lovely coastline. I'll have to come back when I can listen to your narrative

    1. Yes indeed it is quite lovely. My wish is to see it fro the sea. But nearr in it isn't so welcoming. You can come in if you know the rocks, buut not along.

  2. I love the rugged beauty you've shown here (and I'm not even a beach/ocean person). Interesting commentary, too. Nice how you worked in the pink trowel. :) I'm guessing that's something like a "rip tide" you described?

    Of course for me, the best part was watching Jessy.

    1. More an undertow than a riptide. A few miles down the coast there's a very long sand spit where the coast forces that stream out to sea again.
      That pink thing is a child's sand castle spade. I saw it less than a minute after I made that statement.

      Ha, the trip down was just for Jessy.

  3. A beautiful spot! I can see why Jess likes it and, in many respects, it's a good, quiet spot without all the families there. :)
    The coastline reminds me more of what we have along the central coast here. It's so rugged and interesting. Are there roads down to the sea or are you hiking down the rocks to get there?

    1. Yes, in a way it's very like that coast near Carmel. Yours is higher and more punchy. But this was the same type of volcanic action causing mayhem back when.
      But for the USA, where our mountains towards the north, and Scotland, thence to Norway are the extension of the Appalachians. This is slightly different.
      Yeppers, the car was about 40 yards from the high tide mark, and about 40ft higher.

      I'll have to get better at the editing. I cut 10 min out, but I think it needs another 8 out. I cannot separate the sound and the video in Ps. At least I've yet to find a way. Once I do I can make better clips. At the moment using Ps is clunky.
