High Tide Redefined

Without Coz Dale, we don't think of things like tide charts. He always hands us one, upon our arrival at Cape beaches. Imagine our surprise today when we got back to Huntington State Park Beach, that gorgeous haunt I spoke of the other day. It was a warm and windless morning, perfect for a hike. Thing is, the tide was exceptionally high. All the way to and over the dunes! Very cool, though, once we plopped our sand chairs on the sand.

We met the nicest people, as they realized their own hikes were not to be. Encounters always begin with Mambo. Wherever we go, folks fall in love with him. Welcome to our living room in the sand. :-) Here, everyone seems to be a transplant. Many retirees are recognizing lifelong dreams to live by the sea. We especially liked Jack and Sissy, freshly relocated from distant Oregon. We hope to meet again. Honestly, I could write a book instead of a blog!
