You can find me out on the
bay any day I can get there. Even on an
uninspired day like today, I’d love to be out on the water.
This NASA image is courtesy
of Earth Sciences and Image Analysis Laboratory, NASA Johnson Space Center. I grew up on the bottom left side of the
bay. Today I live up near the middle of
that drooping point of land to the left.
If I didn’t have life in the way, I could see the bay.
Here I am off to visit the
seals, the visiting ships, and touring the bay with the tourists on a sunny
chill day. This is the Pilot boat built in
1914. We belong to the Maritime Museum
which often offers special tours like this.
We have been in gun battles, toured visiting ships, and often we have
gone out on one of their small boats on the bay.
What a perfectly wonderful way to spend the day! Wow! You're back in the pool already!
ReplyDeleteIf I didn't get so sea sick I also would love boat tours more. I do take them now and again, but worry that the seas will be rolly-polly.
ReplyDeleteYou have a connection to the sea. Me too! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a long, sheltered bay. Is the thin part of the left man made?
ReplyDeleteIt's filled in a bit. The big blog at the end, Coronado Island used to be two islands and was filled in to make one.
DeleteLovely pictures....we're looking at now here..brrrr.
ReplyDeleteMy exposure to water was the fresh variety way inland on the continent. Lucky you to have been exposed to the salt variety so many years and when you were younger. Always enjoy Dana Point whenever I visit friends living nearby -- so much I'd like to do on water. Whale watching trips with family been most enjoyable, too.
ReplyDeleteLove the Satellite photo. As many times as I've flown into San Diego, I had not realized the shape of the bay an why it is such a fine harbor.
ReplyDeleteThis so resonates with me. I love the water; I love California (particularly San Diego); I love boats. There is such peace out there.
