Another Stunning Sunset

 




I have enjoyed seeing the sunset from the Jetties since getting my park pass. I know I could just access the beach from further up, but late in the day, I don't know if I could make it back after walking all that way down. I leave my diligent walking for early in the day. 

I had an inkling that tonight's sunset just might be very pretty, with the wispy clouds and all. When I went over tonight, the loop was open, after a few months of resurfacing, so I walked along that approach to the beach and was able to get a little different perspective than I have had before. Very nice, indeed. 

I'm not sure how many sunsets I will be able to catch during the remainder of "winter." I have health issues that are triggered by cold, and both early mornings and evenings are getting to be a challenge. But if I can't get out a lot, this one could last me a while.

Sunset at the Docks


Today I though I would wait for the sunset at the Jetties, as I've done a few times now, and I've never been disappointed. But today I opted to check out sunset at the docks, and I sure wasn't disappointed there either. It was lovely. 

Just before sunset, I drove out north of town, and the grasses were very pretty against the setting sun as well. Another peaceful evening on the Laguna Madre.

Sunset at the Jetties



Well, I have been so pleased to finally have a county park pass and be able to drive right up to my favorite place, Isla Blanco Park and the Jetties.  

Tonight's display was lovely and peaceful, with a boat sailing through the glorious sunset. What  nice way to end a day. 

I have been feeling so downright depressed because of not being able to see any family for so long. Of course, I knew it would be this way, but it's different when the reality hits. I'm glad that my health is much better, but there are times when I wonder if it would be better to just deal with the sickness and have family around. Of course, now that my family is all spread out, I can't be around them all. But I sure do miss them. 

And, even a beautiful sunset can't take that away, although it does provide a distraction for a while. 





The Joys of Pet-Sitting on the Island

Pet-sitting on the island offers me the chance to get up and see the sunrise without having to cross the bridge in the dark. However, I almo...
