CLAM HARBOUR BEACH PT 2


Oh HI there!
You finally caught up to me
just a moment while I dig this hole to New Zealand !!
Winks for Jean!
(go check her out my friends!!!)


Yes, we are continuing our stroll on Clam Harbour Beach ~


 not Crab Harbour Beach in the least.


Jim has me exercising like a fool,


must be because it's so flat and I really need a workout.


 Mr. Orangie will never get lost in the fog
while I have my DOODLE EYES on him.


Jim seems to be in good humour
no doubt Ron said something so funny
Jim just couldn't contain himself ..... or NOT!!


These little fellers were strewn all over the sand.
Sea Gooseberries are a familiar sight 
on the beaches this time of year.


Not only do we find those little gems 
looking like jellied diamonds all over the beach but ~~


as I discovered very unexpectedly that life can turn the other way very quickly


Daddy Jim is pointing at a carcass behind him
and which I am heading over to sniff.


YIKES!!
A seal offered up by the ocean
and without a moment's thought we scooped each other up
and departed from this area.


I know folks what you are thinking
but guess what I did not sniff it,
I left it alone.
Aren't you proud of me?


Such is the way of life and death on a beach.
I have witnessed so many things as I saunter along our sandy beaches,
but today was a milestone
because I left the beach without a whiff of a scent of seal on my coat.
Years ago I would have dove onto it.
Does that mean I'm growing up?
Me thinks so!
