…the concession stands appear on the beach in Stone Harbor.
Warm temperatures earlier, and a nice layer of ocean mist to provide relief for those struggling with the pollen. Â Salt air cures all!
Although I basically walk the same stretch of sand year round (varying it a bit along our 7 mile coast), it’s a different experience every day.
Sometimes my “wow” response as I walk over the beach path is about the cold or wind…but most days it’s about the amazing views.
This morning, there were two distinct “wows”, and one “yikes”.
Wows- 1) watching an osprey successfully dive for breakfast, and then struggling to keep the large fish in its talons as it flew over head; 2) literally hundreds of geese in formation flying north, parallel to the ocean.
Yikes- 1) a mouse scurrying across a beach path and in to the dunes. Â Explains why the Snowy Owl was spotted in this area all winter!
See you on the beach 🙂
It seems like I whined about the cold all winter (well, because I did). Â So there is a higher level of appreciation for the improved conditions!
See you on the beach 🙂
Island beach pavilions: 21st Street, 30th Street, 80th Street, 88th Street, 95th Street, and 101st Street. Â Offering interesting views year round!
Great weather for the annual Seafood Festival on 96th Street in Stone Harbor today.
Monday is the pick up day for bulk trash items in Stone Harbor; Avalon’s bulk trash pick up is the following Monday, May 12th (after the Borough wide yard sale weekend).
Beautiful morning- amazing views for my walk before work 🙂
My definition: the colors of the ocean and sky. Â April is FINALLY shaping up. Â Hard to believe it’s almost May.
