No pessimist
ever discovered the secrets of the stars,
sailed to an uncharted land,
or opened a new heaven to the human spirit.
Helen Keller
The first picture was taken on
a cold day in February of this year.
That is how the Atlantic normally looks.
The second picture was taken July 2011 as Hurricane Irene
passed by a few hundred miles off of our
coast.
The ocean was much angrier.
Same pier.

I love how the ocean never looks the same....EVER!
ReplyDeleteWe live close by to the same ocean quite a bit farther north on a large bay. The mood of the sea can change very quickly. Love your photos.
