Less wind and more sun…yet still VERY cold. Â On the plus side? Â The moisture in the sand freezes in the winter- turning the soft sand by the dunes (my wind break!) into a more stable walking surface.

Dune Grass Planting
I’ve written about my personal experience with dune grass planting as a child growing up on the island.  Needless to say, our finished product looked a bit different than the symmetrical rows pictured!
The dune grass planting is the final phase of our recent beach/dune restoration project.

To The Beach!
Hoping for a clear view of the NASA rocket launch tonight.  Follow  @NASA_Wallops  on Twitter for updates.  I will be live tweeting, too @anndelaneybeach
Launch window: Â 7:30pm to 9:30pm. Â Find an area with minimal artificial light (like the beach!) and look south.
P.S.  We were joined by quite a few others at Stone Harbor Point- ideal location for an unobstructed view.  Launch was at 8:15pm, and we watched the rocket  appear from across the inlet, veer over the ocean for several minutes…before fading away.  Cool!  Â

Monday Views
Roaring wind gusts, heavy rain, and then shades of soft pink and blue as the sky cleared. Â Busy weather morning!

Beach Parking
The fishermen are out in full force at Stone Harbor Point…waiting for the striped bass to arrive.
A nice distraction this morning- dolphins feeding just past the wave break. One of the fisherman said dolphins will scare away the stripers, but he was enjoying the rare November sight.
