Buttermilk Bay Beach

It's a real treat to live within walking distance to this beach!  It's not one I'd ever swim at, but water is water.

If this inlet beach got the tidal and wave movement that the coastal beaches get, it'd be a goldmine for beach glass.  There's a ton of glass all over it, but it's still all freshly broken.

Construction continues on the other side of the highway bridge over the water.



Not sure what fish it was.



Water sparklies!


To me these berries look like tiny pumpkins.  I think it's bittersweet.


This was even too rusted and icky for me to take home as a beach treasure!


Fall was finally showing up as of this photo, taken on August 28th.

Seawall's a bit cattywampus.

    I agree - water is water! And, yes, they do look like pumpkins. Bittersweet berries? Hmmm, never heard of them. Very cool.

  10. Yah, any beach with that much seaweed and fish bits isn't exactly swimmable in my books. (I live next to a river and swim in my pool... how picky am I?? I'm always afraid of something swimming up and biting my bum.)
