Not Like the Others

Day Seven:
Well today was 'hump day' marking the half-way point of my getaway. I caught my daily sunrise and then returned to have breakfast out and do a bit of shopping.

Just as a side note we've been visiting a small Mom and Pop restaurant that serves these large chunky slices of rye toast that are outrageously good.

I've been very diligent about getting a two to three mile walk in each day (gotta walk off the chunky rye toast) and I'm just now starting to get my legs back.

I spent some time trying to capture a moonrise from the beach this evening but came up short due to the wrong equipment and poor location. If there was a high note it would have been the long conversation I had during the time with my wife and daughter.

My daughter has surprised me with how much she has missed me (smile moment). My wife I naturally expected would but my daughter (who's twenty-one) was brought to tears tonight.

I'm not sure what I captured this morning. I've never seen this kind of bird on the beach before but loved his coloring. Not like the others, that's what I liked about him. Not a bad thought to remember.

Crashing quickly,
Pray on...
