Shore Shots: The Faux-Artsy Phase

Our time at the shore -- although, sadly, interrupted a little bit by some work obligations -- was a wonderful family time. We made a lot of good memories. I took a lot of photos, so here for your perusal is a selection:

Egrets (I think) in the protected area

Hey - what's a camel doing on the Jersey shore?

  1. Camels aren't indiginous?

    I love Cape May. Thaddeus and I used to spend a week down there every year when we were first together, and we have some wonderful memories.

    It is one of the few places I can go and be assured to gain some level of serenity. Thanks for the photo montage.

  2. Thanks for the pics of Cape May. Yes, that's an egret - looks like the one in our lake here in Louisiana.

  3. That camel was waiting for you to collect his down for some fabulous roving.

    Beautiful pix- a nice moment of relaxation.

    "Hey - what's a camel doing on the Jersey shore?"

    he got washed ashore with all the toxic medical waste! that's why he's so small!

    my favorite - the lighthouse steps.

    thanks for sharing!

    missed you last night!

  9. Oh, I did enjoy this. And needless to say I have a natural affinity for the camel shot, being a camel jockey myself.

    You have an Eye, but we all knew that already.
