A Few Recent Photos

     All of the following photos were taken last Friday morning near my parents' house on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. As we do most years, we were visiting for the Thanksgiving holiday. I've posted photos from this place, and from this time of year, many times before, so I apologize for the repetition, but each morning can be new. The photos reinforce my love for this narrow sliver of land squeezed between a vast sky and broad waters.

  7. Magical. The grassy mash curing into the water is just wonderful. Posting a new set of pictures every Thanksgiving is perfect.
