The tides at all the beaches and salt marshes were extremely high yesterday. We had gotten an “alert” on our iPhones earlier in the day that there was a chance of coastal flooding.
We drove out to Nauset Light Beach about an hour and a half before the peak of high tide hoping that we could sneak in a short walk on the beach. That was not going to happen, the water went all the way up to the dunes already. Wow!
Did you get to see any of the beaches yesterday? It was amazing!
Did you know that on “January 18, 1903 the first public two-way wireless communication between Europe and America occurred. With elation, communiques from President Theodore Roosevelt and King Edward VII were translated into international Morse code at the South Wellfleet and English stations, respectively, and were broadcast.”
This is so cool! Have you ever seen the plaque on the Marconi Beach overlook?
Between the snowflakes yesterday, the sun did manage to come out for a few brief moments. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
We caught one of those moments while taking a walk at Fort Hill. This was such a pretty view overlooking Nauset Marsh at a very high tide with Coast Guard Station shining white way in the distance.
Which one do you like better… Black and white or color?
