Bushwhacking Required…

It was time to discover new beach territory today. This beach access is not for the faint of heart. The ground was very uneven, boggy and covered with high grass making us second guess each step. A little creek merged with the rough, almost completely overgrown foot path. I must admit, if I had been on my own I would have probably abandoned my search for the beach! But once we left the last swampy clump of grass and the hungry black-flies behind we agreed: “The view is breathtaking!”

Straight ahead, across the water Partridge Island beckoned. We turned our attention to the most amazing example of tectonic plate power we ever saw. The cliffs provided us with so much to photograph that we slowed to a snail’s pace moving from craggy rock ribbon to massive outcropping carefully examining our discovery. It was quiet, we had left behind the hustle and bustle of the ordinary world. There wasn’t even the hum of a lobster boat to detect.

Small waterfalls waited to be discovered as they made their way to the beach.

With the tide moving out we had plenty of time to venture into the direction of the basalt cliffs. What a fantastic Friday afternoon in the sun we experienced. We will be returning to this remote place in the near future. There is so much still to discover. We might have to start packing a machete😜.

Happy Friday, Anna
