The Smell of the Sea...

A DAY AT THE SEASHORE


It was a lovely day for a visit to Mukilteo - a bit chilly, but the breeze that greeted us carried the smell of the salt air. That was what I missed the most while I lived in Colorado - the smell of the sea.


 We were greeted by a seagull who posed nicely.




 We made our way to the beach. The tide had been high about a half hour before, and was just beginning to recede, leaving lots of pretty little shells behind for me to discover.



As is usually the case, Duchess led the way...







We saw a guy fishing from a rock in the water. Hope he caught something!


A handy log for resting...


The train came around the bend...this has to happen at least once during a visit to Mukilteo. 

I always wanted to live in that house in the background - what a view!



There were a lot of people flying kites - the breeze was just perfect.
 Larry had his in the car, so off he went to fetch it while Duchess and I waited on a bench.
 



It was up and soaring in no time!









The sky was gorgeous!




I must have hundreds of shots of the ferry, but I just couldn't resist one more!

Amazing clouds!


Bringing it in...




All was well until Duchess decided to be a "Bad Girl" and try to chase another dog by going under the bench where we were sitting. She almost pulled my hand off! With that, we left Mukilteo and headed for home...
