Those Orange Buoys At First Encounter Beach On Cape Cod.

I stopped at First Encounter Beach the other day when it was so windy it looked like you could surf the waves on the bayside. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

I remember a blog I had written a year ago about those orange buoys that lead the way for the trucks to get out to their oyster beds at low tide. And then I saw those orange buoys again at high tide and thought, “ How on earth is it possible that a few hours later at low tide, that the water will be low enough for those trucks and carts to drive out there again. Unbelievable and total dedication!

First Encounter Beach was so pretty with the sun reflecting on the water. I love the soft colors and the halo around the sun in the sky. What do you think?

Wishing you all a Happy New Year! And may you find a little time to get outside this coming year and enjoy nature’s beauty!

Driving down the road at First Encounter Beach reminds me of one of the highest drives that we used to take when we lived in Colorado. All of the trees had branches on one side and were totally bare on the other side. You could tell exactly which way the wind blew on top of the mountains. And… you can tell here too!

It has been so windy here on the Cape the past few days with big waves and white caps on the bayside. We had stopped at Boat Meadow when we saw a flash of bright colors moving pretty fast along the horizon. (Click on blog link for other photo.)


So, we drove to First Encounter Beach to see what was going on.  There was this wind-surfer “flying” through the water. Wow! Was he going fast! What fun!
