Moments on the Maine Coast

Friday turned out to be a beautiful day with
magical moments!

Hints of Autumn

Little signs of autumn are appearing here and
there in our yard...

Looking at the Moon

Last night as I walked along the ocean
I thought I caught a glimpse of the moon
through gossamer clouds.

I paused to look at the moon...

Calm

Tuesday night's walk was very peaceful...

I hope things return to normal soon for those
affected by the storm Irene .

During the Storm

Here are some images from today's outing
during the storm on the Maine coast.
When we were out it wasn't too bad.
The rain stopped in the afternoon as
the wind picked up.

I know there have been many power outages
and downed trees and too much water in the
wrong places!

Hope it was safe where you are.

Night Before the Tropical Storm Irene

The storm was still
south of us on Saturday.


By Saturday evening the ocean was rather calm
but the sky was very dramatic,
you can tell something is brewing!

Now it is Sunday morning and so far we have
rain...the wind hasn't picked up yet.
Will keep you posted!

Take care everyone!

Rain Came Today

We needed rain...

it started at the beach... and
poured on the way home almost to the point
where we couldn't see.

The vegetable garden really needed to be watered!

The violet pole beans liked it, too!

Now our concern is for hurricane Irene...
we are hearing reports she could hit Maine
on Sunday night.
We may just get too much water and wind.
We'll see and are hoping she calms down
and that everyone in her path stays safe!
