Tidepools

Some photos this evening at low tide on the Mirador Beach....off Playa d'Oro and the Pithaya

Nice Joe, do you ever (I'm sure you have), go out there a night with a flashlight? I love checking out them out then.

Oh, I just love going out at night with a flashlight looking in the tidepools. I cannot wait until this weekend. I haven't been since Thanksgiving and I am havin' a major Jones! It has been a rough winter and spring for me.........I need some beachtime......

Chari,
What the heck were you doing up so early (or so late!)? I've never tidepooled at night.....................I'll have to give a try this weekend!!

I have friggin' insomnia. I tell ya, gettin' old ain't for sissies. I put the time to good use, tho. I packed my suitcase!!!!!!!! :-) Bring a flashlight altho I don't know what time low tide will be until I get there and check the tide calendar.

My husband says that all the time!! It should be great tidepooling, due to the full moon on Thursday:woo:

I just googled the tide calendar and low tide starts at 8:42 P.M. on Friday night, 9 something on Sat., etc. It's 25 minutes later each night. We'll find one night to go tidepooling this weekend!

Not in a long time....when my kids were very young...we'd be doing it in the evening until it was dark....

The tide was already coming in when I took the shots....definitely would have been better on a new or full moon tide. Should be great when those of you coming down next weekend go exploring.

You girls will be...

Kenny,
You already know that's one of my favorite songs! Thank you, that was so nice this morning! I sure wish you were comin' down!

Kenny,
You're alright in my book.....................................I looked at this post after reading through all the "unauthorized checkpoint" posts and it was much needed!!

Thanks...........................

There's just something about that song......Makes me feel good.............

Ya don't think there was some herb involved, do ya?

Ya don't think there was some herb involved, do ya?:-D Maybe a little counterculturall activity as well.:thumbsup:

We get it on most every night
when that moon is big and bright
its a supernatural delight
everybodys dancing in the moonlight

we get
everybody here is out of sight
they dont bark and they dont bite
they keep things loose they keep it tight
everybodys dancing in the moonlight

dancing in the moonlight
everybodys feeling warm and bright
its such a fine and natural sight
everybodys dancing in the moonlight

No herb for me, it made me puke. It wasn't countercultural either but it did involve a beach in PP and a handsome local boy............Memories......

IMHO, a real good high and that song go hand in hand.............................

BTW Kenny, too bad you can't join us...........................I'd really love to see that fish scarin' outfit:wink:

Haven't you seen that picture up on here yet, Julie? I'm sure Chuck or somebody will repost it for you. LOL!!!
