Here’s a photo of Dear and me at Emma Wood State Beach this morning at Sunrise. We love this early morning walk and we’re going to miss it.
Ode To Emma Wood (Think “Harriet” from So I Married An Axe Murderer”)
Emma sweet Emma
You thrilled us each week
We hardly could speak
We listened to waves crashing near
Emma Sweet Emma
We’ll miss being here
Each week of the year
To see all your Tides High and Low
Your waves crash on shore
The pelicans soar
The Godwits and Sanderlings dig
Emma Sweet Emma…
Hope your Saturday is going well…
Photobucket is holding all my photos that I stored on their site from 2007-2015 hostage replacing them with ugly grey and black boxes and asking for a large ransom to retrieve them. It is a slow process to go through all my posts deleting the ugly boxes.

Wow…these are beautiful pictures and the Ode is wonderful. Such fond memories you are going to have 🙂
So maybe The Professor and I can go up there and walk with Emma so she won’t be so lonely…
Beautiful, Ellen. We went to some friends’ 60th anniversary celebration. It was kind of funny because we were the “youngest” guests… 😉
Would there be places like this in WA for you to go on walks?
That was great….
Such a poignant post. I can see why you will miss your dear Emma. Few places are so beautiful.
That second to last photo is stunning! What a gorgeous shot! It’s one of those I wish I’d taken. 😉
You will miss it…but you have the most beautiful photos to help you remember!
