HAPPY NEW WEEK and HAPPY NEW MOON!
The moon turns new tomorrow (Sunday). I hope everyone has a joyful, healthy, and safe week!
Taking up from where I left off when showing the pictures of the Welsh castle- we drove along the coast from there and I spied one of the pleasure boats approaching which you can take for a morning out. The captain was giving a running commentary of all the points of interest.
Looking back in the other direction at the Marina and the green trees there, which are one of our usual walks when in that area.
The boat as it reached us - behind it, is the coast of Anglesey.
Back again to the other direction, with parts of the town next to the castle. The grass is looking drier now as its "proper summertime" in August and everything comes to seed.
Further along the road, a wind surfer was struggling in the gusty wind. The small mountains behind him are a backdrop to our area and part of the coastline where we have our holiday home.
Edit: this part of the estuary is a haven for all kinds of water birds but I needed a telescopic lens to capture any decent pics.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Hi, all. As I was getting ready to go to sleep last night, I saw a giant Wolf Spider next to my bed! The second biggest one I've ever seen. We are under a heat advisory for today. The heat and the high humidity will make the "feels like" temperature 105F or 41C this afternoon. The air is so heavy it's hard to breathe. The temperature was already 80F or 27C when I got up at 4 a.m. So, I have no idea why the Wolf Spiders are already moving in for the fall! They usually know when it's going to be a harsh winter. Everyone have a good day. I'll be back later to do replies. I have a doctor's appointment today.(I relocated the spider outdoors. I told him it was way too soon to be moving indoors.)
