...12.17...a few walks at the beach...

...we walked a lot...just for fun...
...the water was very clear...and looked so different at different times of the day...
...this turtle is the work of a talented sand sculptor...
...an early morning walk...
...we're headed up to the pier...and we've got the beach pretty much to ourselves...
...arrived at the pier...
...it's very shady and cool under the pier...
...walking back to the condo...it's the one on the top right...
...an afternoon walk...the water is still perfectly clear...this is low tide...
...and you can see the (very) small breakers a few yards out...where they hit the underwater sandbar....
...one afternoon we decided to walk to the end of the island...
...it's a pleasant level walk...and there's another water tower at this end of the island....
...but this is as far as we can go...apparently the Air Force owns the rest of the island...haha...
...but the beach at this end is just lovely...
...another day...we walked the other way...the way we had driven in...there are these (I guess) drainage fields of some type between the beach and the Intercoastal...
...this was the water tower we passed on the drive in...
...over this bridge...the photo doesn't really show how steep it is...
...just walking up the bridge...
...out over the Intercoastal waterway...
...when you get to the top/middle...you are way up there...over the water...
...another day...we walked out the boardwalk to the yacht club...
...it was a nice walk...with benches and gazebos along the way...
...it ends right at the water...
...with a pretty view of the bridge we had walked to yesterday...
...and an evening walk on the beach...it almost looks like snow clouds...but they are not...
...walking back to our cozy condo...

~Have a lovely day!
