Busy week!


 This week I have been catching up from camping. Lots of cleaning and getting ready for Halloween events. The kids have a trunk or treat so I may go to that and we have some activities in town, so I decided I wanted to have fun this week, and dress up.

I have lots of black clothes, so I have a black skirt, hooded shirt, lace sided jacket and black tights, along with black booties. I also found a hat that I can decorate, I am waiting for black gloves and accessories to add to hat. A bit of mousse and I can frizz or curl up my hair to make it stand out.

I am not sure if you recognize the look, but I was going for the Stevie Nicks look, but most think I am a witch, lol. She has long blond hair with bangs, but I had trimmed mine recently and I refuse to cut my hair into bangs.



We had a nice weekend, a bit cooler and windy, but nice weather for getting out for walks. One beach I never go to is nearby, so we went there and walked on the boardwalk and along the beach. The tide was coming in and the seagulls were waiting for things to wash up.




We also went to the fishing beach to check out the waves. I was watching this boat and as it came around the rocks, it seemed to stop and get rocked around by the waves. It finally started its motor and was on its way, not a good place to stall out.





On the last night, I was on the hill to see the sunset. As I was waiting, a flock of Great Blue Herons flew overhead and were caught by the setting sun.




At another beach we checked out, I spotted a few crazy people, fishing as the tide came in.



I also spotted a group of Cormorants, hanging out in the channel. 



We also got a day to explore the river ways and the foliage. It was raining in the morning but we got a break in the afternoon.



An old mill that sat beside a waterfall dam, but they redid it so the kayakers could get through easier and to help prevent flooding.



And on the other side of the bridge.



While out we went shopping and couldn't resist getting Bean a present. He loves it but hates having his photo taken.



And I am lucky enough to be on a high porch in the back, so I was able to catch the comet. It is still visible but not as much, each night, till the end of the month. I hope everyone had a good week and can enjoy the weekend.

You're adorable Debbie!! And, yes...I definitely get the Stevie Nicks vibe. I never tire of seeing your wonderful photos. It seems like such a different world there and you capture it so beautifully. Great photo of the comet. I never have managed to catch it.... For some reason I don't seem to think about it until it is too late. Enjoy your fall festivities! ~Robin~

Great pictures (and great "dress up") as always!
I've tried, but unsuccessfully, to see the comet. I guess your picture will have to do...sigh. Thanks for sharing.
