We just got back from yet another sunset walk on the beach 🥱

Sunset over the ocean. The sky is shades of pink and orange. There are small birds on some rocks in the water

It’s a great day to go to the beach!

When I saw this I thought “what in the world is that?” I think this one saw better days #MushroomMonday

Orange oddly shaped mushroom. Looks like it has seen better days.

Spectacular visit to the beach this evening. Ocean is roaring again now that it is no longer covered in ice and it pushed in some sea ice to create an impressive landscape. And then there’s the sunset!

Sunset over sea ice. Three people can be seen on the ice down the beach. A hill of on the background

But even a cold foggy morning at the beach is beautiful @ryansnoddon.bsky.social

Sandy beach surrounded in fog. I’ve on the shoreline. Sandy beach dune with a look off on the left.

Good thing I was only 1.5km from the car as this rolled in 😁

Fog bank moves in at the other end of beach. Still some ice on the shoreline. Cliffs on the right.

Lovely sunset this evening. Still some ice out there but it’s pretty much gone.

Sandy beach dotted with lots of pebbles. Cloudy sky but the orange and yellow of the setting sun can still be seen over the ocean. A small wave curls at the shoreline.

A purple mushroom for this #MushroomMonday Looks like someone snacked on it!

Can’t believe it’s 17C! This just feels wrong! The ice won’t last much longer

Told myself I wasn’t going to pick up any beach glass on my walk today.

A lot of beach glass of various sizes. Mostly white but some green and two blue.

Instead of giving something up for Lent, I decided to go to the beach everyday. I’m pleased with my decision 😎

Went back to the beach for sunset. I never thought I’d wear snow pants to the beach so often 😂

The sun is setting, last glimpse of it over the sea ice. The sky is orange blending into blue towards the top of the image.

#MushroomMonday seems like a good day to start reading this. Think I need to get a good identification book to pair it with.

A book- “Entangled life” by Merlin Sheldrake - sitting on a green placemat. The book cover has images of mushrooms all along the sides.

Beautiful sunny day at the beach today

Blue sky but some low clouds at the horizon. Ocean of sea ice. A small rounded island sits on the horizon.

It was -2C with 40-60km/hr winds and nobody else was there! They missed out on a great day at the beach!

Choose 20 paintings that have stayed with you or influenced you — one painting per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just paintings. Salvador Dali “Santiago El Grande”

A woman is standing in front of the massive Dali painting. On it, a white stallion is rising out of the sea. You can see the outstretched arm and leg of the rider. He holds an oversized crucifix. Behind him is what looks like a web of beams. A figure draped in grey is in the lower right hand corner.

I apologize that today’s mushroom is a little blurry but I still think it’s fabulous. #MushroomMonday

Slightly blurry mushroom it has an orange cap with what almost looks like light orange sprinkles on top. The stem is light orange and peeled a bit revealing while underneath. It sits among moss and spruce needles.

The fitness watch I got for Christmas just suggested I journal about the walk I took this afternoon. It really does do everything! And it was a nice day to walk to the beach.

A snow covered beach and an ice covered ocean. Footprints can be seen on the beach.

That’s so cute! *smiles in Canadian*

Door is open and snow is drifted half way up the door. Two cars in the background- one blue, one silver

It may be frozen but the beach is still beautiful. The calm before the storm.

Remembering the good old days of just a year ago when we got so much snow it caused a state of emergency and took days to get shovelled out.

Yellow house with a fenced in deck and three to five feet of snow. There’s a mound of snow that is car.

A door is open to reveal a deck full of snow. There’s a mound in the corner that is a buried BBQ

It’s been a wild and woolly couple of days.

A door is open and there is a snow drift half way up the door.

If you see this, quote with flowers from your gallery. It’s hard to beat the smell of lilacs. #bloomscrolling

Only -7C and not much wind so it seemed like a good day to go to the beach. Only saw one other person. Weird.

My inaugural #MushroomMonday on a day I plan to avoid the inauguration. I have no idea what it is. I just know it’s cool.

Two large mushrooms with brown stems and a white top with a shiny orange centre.

It’s currently -2C - which is fine. But +9C tomorrow and then down to -11c! That’s just ridiculous. I need to take this up with the weather managers.

Weather forecast. Sunday 9C and rain. Monday 8C and rain. Tuesday -11C and flurries.

Well, I have a fine collection of them! My husband has mocked me for it. 😤😁

Went to the Beaverbrook art gallery in Fredericton today to see the Tom Thomson exhibit. It was excellent - and then was surprised and delighted to see they also have a William Turner and a few Salvador Dali. Impressive collection. Take it in if you can!
