Onset

We had the most amazingly warm day in mid-March.  And by amazingly warm I mean about 60*.  I wore shorts for the first time this season!  So I decided to take the furkids out for walkies in Onset.  Saw a ton of glass but none of it was worn at all.  It was all pretty fresh.  If it was worn down, it'd be a beach glass junky's paradise.

I let them off leash at Riverside Beach for a bit.




Then I took them over to Onset Beach.

Dump duck with his catch of the day.







A woman and her daughter, who I'd say was no more than 3, were flying this kite.

  2. Looks like a wonderful day! I love the Squid Row sign. That is too cute :) The kite is beautiful. Reminds me of flying kites with my grandfather when I was a little girl. He used to make them and we had so much fun!

  13. I'm jealous that you're near the beach. I wish I'm near one. I hate driving. LOL I can see myself retiring near the ocean.
