Love the last shot! Now that a timelapse video I'd love to watch. Bring a tripod to beach. Mount on tripod, soak in the sun while the camera grabs the fun.

It's from Bushnell. I have the Trophy Cam one.

I might get a second soon. Not sure which. I'd like one that records every minute instead of 5, 10, 30 or 60. This way when I'm driving I can get a timelapse video. Otherwise 5 is fine for weather.

Right now I have it mounted on my tree facing my garden. Takes a pic every 15 minutes since Mid May

Taken this morning. Current afternoon temp is 76°F. Not many flock to the beach yet. lol Low Tide.



Just realized they replaced the pier which was destroyed with Sandy. The pillars had remained in tact but the walkway didn't.

The land in the distance is Rowayton/Darien, CT which sticks out more into the Long Island Sound than Norwalk does here.

Might hit the beach tomorrow. Today I took the kids to the local pool

Just got a small load of Birch delivered. Wow what an awesome scent when freshly cut!




Anyone wanna help me stack this? Still 80s at 8pm so I wont be touching this pile until it cools down.

My mom was flying yesterday and took pictures of a thunderstorm over Atlanta. I think it's an amazing perspective.

You got the best mom in the world!! Nice shots. The last one was my favorite. How high was she at this time? Turbulence?

Actually, if you tell me the time I can probably find the sounding for it and get an idea how high the clouds were
