Ocean Sand Dunes for Green Thumb Sunday

Last week's post featured sand dunes along the ocean in the spring.
This week, I backed up from where we were standing, and included a glimpse of the ocean along with the windswept sand dunes.
On the other side of the dunes there is a long beach that stretches down to the water.
We were not able to access the beach due to the nesting birds, but I am sure that in the summer it is quite a busy place.
This was a nice little stretch without any houses, but on either side of these dunes the houses are packed two and three deep.
Nature and man - both vying for this beautiful little spot. For now, nature is holding on - I hope it stays that way.
Beautiful picture makes me yearn for warmer weather
ReplyDeleteI remember your sand dunes of spring! I looked at this photo trying to imagine that it was cold and windy, but couldn't conjure up that image. It just seems warm. Although living near water is nice, I also think beaches should mostly remain natural. I've never seen a beach area enhanced by housing!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice holiday,
Aiyana
I hope it stays that way, too, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteThe sand looks so white and litter-free!
Hi Rosemary - we could definitely use some warmer weather - we just got almost 2 feet of snow over the last two days. Brrrrrr
ReplyDeleteHi Aiyana - When we look at sand, we think of the desert and heat. Right now I bet those dunes are not even visible under all the snow.
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda - We don't usually see such white sand in this area - it was beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove the way you included more, changes the whole look. It is hard to imagine that kind of weather where I am right now.
ReplyDeleteI'm hopping in to wish you a
