sometimes...
a sunset drive and loud music
is all
you really need….
it fills in all the cracks in your heart
and stops the chatter in your head…
life's beachy...(that's a saying, right?)
Every summer, I try to visit different beaches,
along with all of my old favorites....
namely Union Corner and Thunder Cover.
I took a drive out to Belmont though this year
and was pleasantly surprised.
There was almost no one else there
and if there is anything my introverted little self loves...
it's an empty beach.
One side was...well...ok....but the other side...
cliffs and rocks and still silent water.
I will totally go back there again next summer.
under the bridge...
Earlier in the summer
(before the accident that put the
l'il hyundai accent out of commission),
I took a little adventure drive
out through Borden...
and realized
that you can go
right under the
Confederation Bridge!
You have to climb down on
some pretty big rocks
but I have seriously always loved doing that anyway.
It did freak me out
just a teensy-tiny bit
when I got under there
and could hear
the cars and trucks and campers
and transfer trucks
shaking and rumbling right over top of me...
plus
I can't swim
so I was also very cautious not to drown
or drop my camera...
So fun though! :)
Oh....and I had taken some from a nearby beach, too!
awwwwww....i kinda miss the ferries...
i like loud things...
a couple of weekends ago
on the spur of the moment
i went to the truck and tractor pulls
in crapaud.
i saw it on facebook
and thought...hmmm...that sounds loud...
packed up my camera
and bug spray
and went.
AND IT WAS SO FUN.
i only got there for the last hour or so
but got to see the truck pulls...
AND the tractors that go fast...and rev their engine
for a long time before going
making for a huge black cloud of smoke
which i know is probably bad for the
environment
but i can't help how exciting it is...
THEY WERE SO LOUD.
people told me to get ready,
to plug my ears,
you better plug your ears,
you're gonna wanna plug your ears...
and i was like nooooo...i'm fine.
i love noise.
but holy.
they were loud.
(i still couldn't plug my ears anyway...
how would i hold the camera)...
after the excitement of the tractor pulls
i took a drive around Victoria by the Sea...
one of my favorite places...
and stopped at the beach...
and then i went to Deckers dairy bar in
Cornwall for a salted caramel oreo cookie
hard ice cream in a waffle cone
and it was so good
i had to eat it all right away
and could not wait to take photos of it.
sorry.
next time.
