Lone Duck on Rock, Cape Ann MA for Happy Blue Monday
The wind has been wild and cold and you can see the roughness of the ocean in the photo above here on Cape Ann. Probably, we will move into Summer and skip the lovely temps of Spring. Mother Nature is so unpredictable. The sun is warm gratefully.

It has been unseasonably cold and windy here. But the sun is shining and the flowers blooming so how bad can it be?

So nice to feel Spring upon us.
ReplyDeleteI love that ripple, the hard scape of the stairs and the soft invite of the sand.
ReplyDeleteOh, I like your sea nymphs! And I believe we ARE all queens and kings. :)
ReplyDeleteI think we are going to skip the lovely temps of spring here too and go right into summer. Bummer
ReplyDeleteVery especially like your photos today, Carol. Waterside pictures always are my favorites.
ReplyDeletewonderful shots and words. The left shot that's part of a montage has the best quality to the water in the wake of the boat. It looks like satin.
ReplyDeleteI so love your collection of imagery and haiku. So very creative!
ReplyDeleteI love the artwork and the colors, very pretty. We are having a chilly spring here, I would like some warmer days. Your scenes of Cape Ann are beautiful. You do live in a beautiful place. Lovely post, have a happy week ahead!
