How fortunate we are to live so close to the Atlantic...my father and I go for breakfast early every Sunday morning and then take a ride to the ocean to make sure it is still there. This morning we took a ride to Jamestown an island off the mainland connected by a bridge and then connected by another bridge to Newport. It was gorgeous this morning. We rode over to Beavertail which is the end of the island. This is where the lighthouse is situated. High tide was at 8:30 AM and just coming in as we got there around 8AM. One fellow was fishing and I mean seriously fishing as we had four poles set up. He had his poles set in holes on the rocks...it was an interesting sight.
Can you see the four poles he is working? Can you imagine if he got four bites at the same time?
Here is a picture of Dad taking in the view of the ocean...
We stopped by the windmill to take in the view...doesn't it look like we left the USA and made quick stop in Holland?! The daffodils are beautiful against the stone wall and the windmill in the back....What a beautiful morning!!!!!
This is a lovely way to start every Sunday morning...a good breakfast, good sights and exceptionally good company...life gets no better than this.
Take care and be sure to spend sometime with someone you love,
Elizabeth
