~~~Orr's and Bailey's Island~~~part II ( It's about time)

It is about time I got back on the road again,after that bumpy spot in the road, which is taken care of , but one never knows when dealing with cyberspace !!  When I did the first post on the Orr'sand Bailey's Island I  neglected to place part I in the title, so now of course this is part II ( I bet you guessed that  ; ) !!
I don't know how many parts there will be , but the Mockingbird post helped shorten the trip : ) sure there will be enough to bore you , so don't say you weren't warned!!  ; )

We left the bridge area with this last look at a line of "barely water-worthy looking boats
most likely belonging to lobster men to get to there moored Lobster boats in the harbor! 

Trucking on , and yes I mean that literally as my daughter
 is a pickup girl..."no not that kind either"; )!!
She loves her 4 door crew cab Toyota Tundra...it's a nice ride!! : )

Modest homes,and summer homes along the way,and a at on time lovely little home setting near the waters edge overlooking the bay...very sad  looking now : (

Loved this one because I liked the rounded shingles, : }!!
Do you see the shape of a cross on the back wall!!
""My overactive imagination ??"" 

Next stop Mackerel Cove

This is just one tiny little corner of it , with lobster boats looking a little idle!! 
Took this through the window of the moving vehicle so not great !t  



Came upon this area that seemed to be a public landing with a parking area so we got out here 
and walked around!! 
It was " Colder then Blue Blazes" !!
I have been saying that all my life , so I Goggled it..it was there to my surprise 
along with some I won't mention here
that my son-in-law uses!! : ))

I don't know why,but I liked these boats tied here!!


There was a rope swing so the Grandson had to try it out , I was hoping that
the rope was safe "Yikes"!!
I didn't notice until I downloaded and had a good look at these that he hasn't got any
socks on, but has his gloves Hahaha .."love that kid"!!



The daughter and, I of course had to check the beach out for sea glass, she found 
two green pieces, but wouldn't share "Brat"!!
Hmmm. just noticed she has her glasses on..she only needs them to drive!!
Do you see things like I do other them the subject itself ?
"Drives me crazy",but you can't say I'm not observant !!

This one really got me "darn"!!
When I looked closely at the photo there was a green piece  in that very pile of shells, and
 I didn't see it! : ( !!  Wish I had been more observant then!! 

Over a foot deep the shells are on this beach  !!
Who knows what sea glass lurk's below, but it was to darn cold to look! Grrr

My art piece I cropped out of one of the shots  lol!!

I find sea shell so fascinating...how about you !! 

I know very long , but I have to get this trip over ; ) !!

  5. Grace, this place is awesome for photos. So many photo opp's. Love the shot with colorful old boats. And the shot of your Grandson and since you mentioned it, I see he does not have socks on. My favorites are the seashell photos. I see the green seaglass and a piece of white clear glass also. I know Debbie and she would not have missed these pieces. Thanks for sharing your day, have a great evening!

  9. oooohhhhh grace, you have beautiful shells there also, how in the world do you leave them behind?!

    That was a big piece of green glass you missed, I would not have, no matter the temperature! There is a piece of white (it may be a lil sharp) in the second to last picture!!

    How cool that you thought of me!!
