towering moments

I am back in my home town on Long Island, in New York, to visit my elderly parents. If you have hiked around this blog you know that when I return to Long Island I always spend time walking along the shore at Jones Beach and capturing images of this amazing public park. These images are of the Jones Beach tower, affectionately called “the pencil”, that supplies water to the park. Thanks for stopping by.

chasing the sunrise

This post could also be called, “variations on a theme.” I got out by 5:00 am and enjoyed chasing the sunrise along the shore. The ocean waves were singing, the sky was just dancing… a beautiful start to the day…

my happy place

Just love visiting my elderly parents in New York and, going to my happy place…

briny chaos

What may appear to be an unfinished project, is actually a gigantic high ropes and challenge course recently completed and opened at Jones Beach called, Wild Play. It certainly changes the look of the park, but, I can’t wait to give it a try!
