The landscape of the West coast never ceases to amaze me. A view from Radar Point (obviously ex-military, hence the unspectacular name), is well worth the hike.
My personal therapy includes long walks at Long Beach.
There is twisted plant life like these only a few meter high trees surviving in a boggy environment.
But you also find raincoast giants here, such as this 800 year old tree.
Some places are accessible at low tide only, and you should always watch the tide.
Beachcombing is a hobby of mine, and so I return to the beach several times during this awesome day.
We are blessed with another beautiful sunset.
It can't get any better than this.
Beautiful images! If you're hiking, the knee must be doing pretty good. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots Sonja! I really like the ones on the beach. The 800 year old tree is interesting. I agree, what a wonderful world!
ReplyDeleteThose photos are beautiful, Sonja!
ReplyDelete@Richard: I took my doctor's advice 'to take a hike', and it works, I can almost walk normal again.
ReplyDelete@Mike: I took many pictures of the beach with the result that they all look the same... but it is a very enjoyable motive.
@Stacy: Thank you.
Love the last three pictures, the coast is beautiful up there and you always have the sunsets, not fair ;-)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures and I'm glad you're able to "take a hike" in such beautiful surroundings.

I'm just getting caught up. Expressed way late, but my sympathies for your knee!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these photos. I'm getting peace of mind vicariously.
Dear Sonja:
ReplyDeleteI found the picture of the two trees on the moss-covered rises to be especially intriguing. I would have loved to sit there and watch the tide return.
Fondest regards,
