Saturday Drive

Nice day to get out for a drive to the beach.   Colonial Beach.  I found some driftwood to add to my growing collection.
Very windy.  I feel no aches or pains walking in the sand on a day like this.  I love it!

lunch at Wilkersons in Colonial Beach.
Shrimp, salad, flounder etc...

Glittery

Since the sun has come out shining so pretty.  Had to capture a few trees with ice that glitters in the light.
I want to stay in a cabin with a big stone fireplace with the next snow.  I guess one could say "I LOVE SNOW".











back to vacuuming

Snowy Monday

Ahh, such a pretty sight this morning at 7ish a.m.




Weeping willow with frozen branches


back inside looking out and a pleasant sight

Old Point Comfort Light

A look behind me from the beach is the Light


Old Point Comfort Light




Beautiful light house and it's in between private homes now. I carefully walked around it so not to disturb homeowners.


Peeling paint and some work looks like it needs to be done to preserve it.




You can see a glow from the light a little bit if you look close

now a walk down further to take a closer look at the Fort

Fort Monroe - Hampton Va -. Beach

Hampton Virginia's  National Monument - Fort Monroe, a decommissioned military installation.
Located on  Old Point Comfort, the southern tip of the Virginia Peninsula.

 Fort Monroe-170 historical buildings  inside of 565 acres.  Included is 8 miles of waterfront and 3.2 miles of beaches on the Chesapeake Bay.

A walk along the beach first.  I always feel better when I do.  Fresh air and a breeze with a pleasing walk in the sand took all of my cares away.  I just feel so much healthier near the water such as this.

Our day trip on Saturday consisted of  about a 90 mile drive. Will do again real soon.

Always good to be aware and good information posted looking over the water.





Seaweed?  Don't know what this is called.






A short clip of the bay

Behind me is the lighthouse and pictures tomorrow.
