Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

It was kind of overcast on my beach walk this morning, but I need my exercise, so I got up as I normally do at about 5:00 and went out.

No one there as usual, no Supermodels, celebrities from Dancing with the Stars, or America's Got Talent, just me and the seagulls which is the way I like it.

i also didn't have to save any horseshoe crabs but I did come across this boat, probably from one of the early explorers, maybe Balboa, Rocky Balboa or Rocky and Bulwinkle. (Google Him)

The tide was coming up so I had to hurry because in a few minutes, I wouldn't be able to get back without climbing on these 7' pilings and most of my piling climbing days are over.

There are very few places in New York where you can walk on a beach and look both ways about 5 miles, and never see anyone.

Thats the main thing I love about this place. Peace and solitude. Early in the morning anyway.

I need this quiet time before I start my day and the smell of ocean breezes gets into your blood like dope so if you don't get it, you crave it.

I was stationed in Colorado for a few months before Nam and I loved it. There is a lot of solitude there, but I always thought it needed an ocean. I missed that.

On my way back the water came up over this rock so I had to climb over it, Not that big of a deal and I did find this red sponge. Too bad is was not alive.
