Way back in January we had some nice clear weather so I bundled up and went down to the waterfront.
I walked out on the pier, it was really cold and it's always windy on the pier. The ferry was docked, letting cars and passengers off, then reloading for the trip across the sound. In the background you could see Mount Baker. Course, my phone made it look really tiny. It's about 100 miles from us but with the naked eye, it looked so big and so close.
I went all the way to the end of the pier, and I took this picture before heading back.
Then I walked along the marina. There was another ferry coming into Edmonds and a fisherman was getting ready to take his boat out.
Then I headed to the beach. Usually I just walk along the pathway and sit on a bench for a while. But this time I decided to walk on the sand. It had been years since I'd done that! It was January though so I kept my shoes on. 😊
This is looking back toward the pier and the mountains.
These are the Olympic Mountains. These are west of us. The Cascades are to the east of us. This area really is beautiful on a clear day.
By the time I got to the end of the beach, another ferry had docked. It was so peaceful down there and exactly what I needed!
I hope you're able to take some time for you this week. Find a quiet place to sit and reflect on your blessings. Have a wonderful weekend!
