One More- Boat Parade

By ann

Kayaked early, and paddled by this “Survivor” home still decorated from the boat parade. Very clever with the notable island storms!

An older (and beautifully restored) home on Shelter Haven Basin, Stone Harbor.

Bay Views- Last Night

By ann

Thanks to kind neighbors, we had a front row view of the boat parade.  From their dock, we were able to watch a beautiful sunset while the decorated boats passed by.  Most water front homes were in the spirit with lights and decorations celebrating the Stone Harbor Centennial.

Very clever themes… and big cheers at the end for the Stone Harbor lifeguards in their row boats!  Fun night 🙂

Stone Harbor Boat Parade

By ann

BIG night ahead in Stone Harbor…even the 96th Street bridge into town will be closed (7pm to 10pm).

Bay front property owners are decorating their homes, docks, and boats; as well as hosting friends and neighbors.  Fun to kayak around this morning to see the preparations!

Will post pictures tonight on Twitter (from a friend’s dock).

Wednesday Views

By ann

Another beautiful bay AND beach day yesterday.

The tide was just right in the morning to allow access under the 104th Street bridge – that sign doesn’t apply to kayaks 😉  It’s a bit tricky with pilings and pipes…but the 12 year old in me likes to give it a try!

And then a picture perfect afternoon on the beach.  Life is good…
