Another Perfect Beach Day!

Ken and I had a great night's sleep and were ready for a day of adventure.  So, we packed our lunches and loaded up Diesel to head to Short Sands Beach in York, Maine.  It is such a beautiful, scenic drive to that area.  We were on the beach by 10:15 and were amazed at the size of the beach at low tide versus high tide.  You should be able to see it on the photos.  We got there at low tide when it is supposed to be the best for finding seaglass.  We found numerous pieces, but most of them were very small.

This is how the beach looked when we arrived at low tide!
1st the sandy beach, then lots of rocks, then some shallow
water, and then more beach area!


The sand beach disappeared farther out, so everyone moved
to the area where we were sitting!

This photo gives you a perspective of how close the water
came to our chairs during high tide!


So, we did some reading and enjoyed relaxing.  After eating our packed lunches, we walked in the little seaside town, going in and out of the small shoppes.  Then back to the beach for more reading and then looking for seaglass when the tide came in.  Again, we were successful.  We have so much fun searching!!!

Our "catch" of seaglass today.  Exciting!!!


Back to Willie by 4:45 to make salads for dinner and enjoy cooking and eating outside.  Made reservations for 2 weeks of camping in Sea Pines near Avalon NJ in September.
