I'm becoming so lazy. I bribed myself to take my usual 40 minute waterfront walk with a praline and creme ice cream cone at the end.

The sky was a vast empty pale blue and at first the ocean seemed an empty green. But when I got closer there were burnt orange jelly fish floating around.

Several men were fishing off the pier but no one was catching anything. Most birds are migrating. Lots of gulls and pigeons.

Several little kids and mothers testing the quiet water.

Now I have a blister on my foot.
