Happy 2022! We woke this January 1 to fog, the same as the day before and actually for a good part of December.
Early, but not too early, we drove to a local small beach for a walk along the small shoreline and a hike on the boardwalk through the mangroves. The sun barely broke through when we arrived to find a very low tide, and in the distance Great Egrets along with other wading birds standing in the mud flats. The white of the birds, brown of the sand, and white-gray of the fog made the whole scene look a little surreal.
We discovered that the boardwalk was completely closed for maintenance, so walked the beach and enjoyed the view. As the fog closed in again, we left. A short walk on the beach is better than no walk!
Happy New Year to Everyone!
