Carol,your town looks straight out of Murder She Wrote.......without the murder of course!
ReplyDeleteI like very much the rural marches image and haiku.

Hi Carol,
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I leave this comment, I'll fix your defective link. (You placed my blog's address instead of yours!)
Thanks for sharing your blues.
Happy Blue Monday!
Thanks Sally ~ ^_^ ~ My faux pas ~ happens when I 'rush' ~
DeleteSo beautiful!!! All of the photos.
ReplyDeleteFantastic shots, Carol! And the quote is an awesome one "It is always possible!" So true!
ReplyDeleteI wonder who Lisa Ann II was? I'd love a boat named after me...wouldn't you?
ReplyDeleteIt's a fantastic entry for Happy Blue Monday ;D
That is one cute pooch by the way ^..^
I have no way to find that answer ~ but thanks for asking ^_^
DeleteHi! Beautiful photos as usual. I like your second Haiku very much. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe boat has wonderful name. Interesting blues you've shared here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting :)

To live near the sea....But my favorite picture is the blue umbrella!
ReplyDeleteYour haiku words are lovely and that blue umbrella is some shade of blue. Stunning!

Lovely photos! Especially I like the photo of the blue umbrella! It´s unique!
ReplyDeleteThe water is such a great place to get pictures, isn't it??? These came out great. :)
ReplyDeleteThe umbrella is great for Blue Monday too! Great pics -- love the boats!
ReplyDeleteeverything is so beautiful through the lens...isn't it?
ReplyDeleteSomething about a harbour!
ReplyDeleteCheers from Cottage Country Ontario , ON, Canada!
That umbrella shot is amazing! Lovely blue colors.
ReplyDeleteLove the Lisa Ann II -she looks so cheerful in blue:) Your capture of the marshes is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow... 5* post! Your keyboard image (great artwork), especially the rooftop is marvelous! Wonderful haiku, Carol!
ReplyDeleteThe harbor scenes are great, but I really love the wonderful marsh, so colorful and pristine. And I enjoyed the haikus very much. That's a feeling I can get when playing music.
ReplyDeleteLove the boats on the water!! Great captures for the day, Carol! Hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful scenery but I especially like the boats and the harbor.
ReplyDeleteWonderful captures, I really like the shot of the fishing boat. Beautiful scenery, the marsh is lovely too. Thanks for sharing your world. Have a happy week!
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely blue in your photos! I love the umbrella!
ReplyDeleteAutumn coming to the marshes wasmy favourite photo.
ReplyDeletebeautiful the shots and the haiku
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this post, wonderful photo's and two great haiku. If it's ok I love to use your first haiku for our upcoming Tan Renga month. Thank you for sharing ... Namaste.
ReplyDeleteThank you Carol for granting me permission to use your haiku in our upcoming Tan Renga month. I am honored.
DeleteYou are so blessed to live in such a beautiful place Carol! Happy Monday to you!
ReplyDeleteIndeed ~ I am blessed!
DeleteLove the pictures all... there is something intriguing to me about working fishing boats (The place we go most often on the Oregon Coast also doesn't have very many working boats any more, used to be many when we first started going there.) The haiku and your painting of the piano keyboard are wonderful.
ReplyDeletemagnificent photos carol, and your haikus are very poignant. If I lived by the water I'd be there taking it in no matter what the season.
ReplyDeleteA great series of blue shots.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous musical haiku and love the hint of fall in the marsh ♥
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so beautiful!...Christine
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos showing the segue to autumn! (And lovely haiku too!)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots on the water. I also always like your haikus.
ReplyDeleteGreat series of shots.
ReplyDeleteAre you a tickler of ivories? ;)
ReplyDeleteIvory Hunter
Used play but alas, no longer ~ sometimes play with my guitar ~ ^_^
DeleteHi Carol
ReplyDeleteIsn't Lisa Ann 2 a great looking boat - I wonder whether there was a Lisa Ann 1?
Love the seagull taking a rest - perhaps enjoying the last warmth of summer?
Wrenx
Lovely blue shots!
ReplyDeleteNice and beautiful photos! Have a good day!
ReplyDeleteSweet music to you as those ivories are tickled!
ReplyDeleteEluding Ivory Poachers
I love looking at the marsh!
ReplyDeleteHazel
Such lovely choices, Carol!
ReplyDeleteI particularly like the perspective of the umbrella shot!
ReplyDeleteSeeing your shots I wish summer was a bit longer.
ReplyDeleteGood.
ReplyDeletealthough the tourists bring vibrancy and dollars, it must be nice to enjoy this time of rest (before the harsh winter!)
ReplyDeleteI like your haikus- both fabulous...like the fish boats too..I would love to see that in person.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your photos!
ReplyDeleteCarol, again and again you capture all the beautiful things. I love it especially the blue umbrella.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Melody
Such relaxing shots - amid such beauty!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks!

I love the soft quality of that first shot. The umbrella is so fun for the letter U.
ReplyDeleteI love the contrasting themes of music and quiet in your poems.
ReplyDeleteIt is quite exciting seeing fall colors popping everywhere now. I am chasing the colors at the lake hoping I could get nice photos. ^_^
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining Water World Wednesday

Oh gee my soul really needs to be here right now! What a peaceful and beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I don't know what it is causing your blog to lock up the browser, (Mozilla Not responding). It took 10+ minutes to get to the comment form. 1 GB of space at times is showing in Task Manager. The slow page loading here is very unusual. Beautiful blog for what I was able to view. Only one other time have I experience such slow page loading was about photo sizing.
ReplyDeleteCarol, I love the colors of the marsh in the fall. Our marshes change colors as well. I can see them from my front porch.
ReplyDeleteLove your haiku. And the photos are wonderful.
ReplyDelete=)
Stunning... absolutely beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteI really love the soft shadows under the umbrella!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful captures. The one of the marsh with the colors and the water is strikingly pretty. genie
ReplyDeleteThat image for the letter "U" is unreal!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking.
