An Afternoon Walk Along Bonners Landing Beach by taffy

An Afternoon Walk Along Bonners Landing Beach

We started our day in pouring rain and rush hour traffic leaving Chicago, arriving on Beaver Island in the midst of sunshine and bright blue skies. Sigh...so nice to be here, even for only a weekend. We'll be getting things organized for summer - fun stuff like working out landscaping work to be done. Less fun stuff like scrubbing the empty refrigerator today before we start filling it again. But always time for a walk.

Stunning .. such clear sky's ... enjoy your break even though there is some work involved..

beautiful beach

Ah so lovely. I see what you mean about the brown. Scotland is still like that, but as you saw yesterday, where we are in France, everything is very so green already. Such a pretty picture of this lovely bit of island coast.

Hold on - there's more lake and less beach! It's such an inviting and warm image . . .

Oh when I see your shots from Beaver Island I am thinking maybe I should have accepted your invitation! How peaceful! Oh no I chose Chicago - so much more exciting! Lol! See you soon! Fav for this beautiful scene!

@jyokota Lake is definitely higher, but there's better beach -- all sandy stuff with much of the rocks gone. I took this from the south end of our bay, looking north, but took the sunset from the beach in front of our house. That's why the amount of sand and beach area looks different. Basically, it all looks nicer than last year -- must have been a very windy winter, even without much storminess or snow.

Wonderful shot

Like how the grasses? Seaweed? Seems to lead the eye in in a nice curvy fashion. Glad you are getting to be in your own summer home at least. Enjoy the weekend

Can't beat a shore-line for an impressive capture, Beautiful.
April 15th, 2017  
Lovely seashore, great shot and so good to hear you'll have a few days under your own roof. Enjoy.
April 15th, 2017  
That's a lovely scene.
April 15th, 2017  
Always enjoy your shot on Beaver Island. Don't think I've seen this beach like shot of the Island before. Awesome scenic capture.

@jgpittenger It's been lovely to be 'home.' A shot in the arm. But I'm looking forward to seeing Junko who's back from some of her travel this month, and then @pamknowler and @rosiekind will be visiting. And we meet with our contractors on Wednesday so our condo is now feeling real too.

@taffy hooray

What a beautiful photo, Taffy. So are you getting back into your condo finally, the one with the renters that you actually own? So far behind again. More medical stuff and one more test coming this coming week. Its been crazy but so far nothing serious going on which is a relief. FAV

Beaver Island certainly looks like a beautiful place to spend the summer. Wonderful capture of this lovely beach. :-)

Wonderful scenery xx

Far from the madding crowd indeed. Beautiful scenery.
April 16th, 2017  
This is beautiful! Makes me think about the summer - we will have a week and will go "up north" again. Probably the UP.
April 17th, 2017  
All the textures in the foreground add so much interest to this Taffy. It is a very inviting scene.
April 17th, 2017  
Beautiful.
