….can always tell when August rolls in
The nights get cooler in late August but it tends to warm up during day. On this last trip to the cottage the winds picked up and we had huge waves. I’ve never known the waves to come up the beach as high as they did. On our little section of beach the waves came up over a wall of sand and created an new lake in the middle of the beach. When I took these pictures the wind and the waves had already died down somewhat but the little lake remained.
Luckily we had gone swimming the day before and the water is still quite warm.
Hopefully when I go back tomorrow the winds will stay away for awhile. When the waves are too high the barge won’t run and that means we would be stranded on the island. Not a terrible thing but my daughter has already lost one day of work because we couldn’t get off the island.

oh but what a beautiful place to be stranded – momma and daughter 🙂

I think so but I’m not sure my daughter would agree. Once is okay but twice in a month?

Beautiful photos, Carol! They would make lovely paintings! And being stranded is not much fun when you need to be at work!

Love photographs of the sea. These have almost luminous colours. Wonderful.

The beauty is that it changes daily. It’s never the same two days in a row.
