Thomas Point Beach – Day 1

It is so relaxing to be here…

1 (1)…relaxing in the sun and listening to bluegrass and mountain music.

1 (2)After a few hours of sitting, reading, and listening to delightful music, I took my camera for a walk around the grounds.

1 (3)The osprey (or whatever kind of bird it was) noisily left the nest as I walked under it.

I was taking it the scenery around me, including people and campers and was not prepared with my camera.

1 (4)The tide was out, so people were clamming on the mud flats.

1 (6)There were also egrets and sea gulls taking advantage of the food in the mud.

2   I love the variety of scents in a campground – especially when there are pine trees.

3 (2)This walk through the grounds brought me to the back of the stage where there were preparations for the next show.

3 (3)  A lunch must for me at this festival is a lobster roll. Oh, yum!

3 (4)Cerwin does not like lobster, but looks forward to a sausage sandwich with all the fixings.

3 (5)At first I thought this kite was a strange bird.

5It is nice to have time to sit and look up to the sky.

3 (6)It was a warm, sunny day, so hats were part of the dress code for many.

3 (7)The Quebe (Kway-bee) sisters were one of our favorite groups. They are from Texas and sing a variety of western swing, vintage country, and bluegrass, along with very good fiddling.

4I love to read a good book with bluegrass in the background – sometimes reading, sometimes listening.
