Beach – Eskildoodle Photos and Feelings

Sponged

While walking by the ocean at Clearwater, Florida, we encountered this sponge washed up on the beach. Though we found no pants, square or otherwise, there was a nearby nametag that read: “Hi, my name is Bob.” #beachcombing #sponge #beach #bob #ocean

Timeless Tracks

A few years ago we spent some time at Flagler Beach, Florida. One morning we arose to discover that a turtle had laid her eggs in the beach during the night.

Sunset Spectacle

Mix clouds, blue sky, and setting sun over ocean and beach; stir, then just sit back and enjoy. #sunset #clouds #sky #beach #ocean

Tomorrow, another tidal cycle will rearrange the scene to the whims of the current and swells. Will it be similar or totally different? Only time will tell. #beach #swells #tide #annamariaisland #tide #beach #sand

Alone by the Sea

Cayman Clouds

Clouds cast shadows and showers between sunbeams across a sandy shore and a rippled sea during our first full day at Grand Cayman. However, even rain could not dampen our spirits, but merely added to a colorful collection of happy memories.
