This morning I took my first walk on the beach for the season. I can't go in the winter because they remove the bottom 10' of stairs and being I am not Spiderman, I don't want to jump that distance. But today I rescued my first horseshoe crab of the Spring.

For an animal that has been here for millions of years they are very stupid. They have billions of miles of water but they keep crawling into very shallow water until a wave turns them over on the dry sand until the seagulls tear them apart for lunch.

I did a beach walk this morning but it's cloudy so no sunrise. I went down to the sea to see the sea. And I didn't have to rescue any horseshoe crabs, Supermodels or seals. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

So I walk every morning and I am in farm and golf course country here and being it rains in New York more then London I needed new hiking boots because my sneakers get all wet walking on the grass which I have to jump up on every time a car or school bus comes by.

All my life I lived either in or near the city limits so we always had sidewalks, something non existent here. So I ordered these "hiking" boots from Amazon.

They were very cheap, practically free so I knew they would not last very long but I figured for the 2 miles I walk every day in wet grass, they would be fine for walking or turning over horseshoe crabs.

I got them and tried to put them on but they are like cement. Very stiff with absolutely no flexibility or movement so I figure they sent me the plaster model of the boot that they put up in front of a store in a mall.

I sent them back

Good Morning. This was the sunset last night.

On my morning walk it was foggy but I was able to check out this tidepool. Nothing exciting in it.

I was able to rescue this small conch or as us Italians call them Scungeel.
I got there before the sea gulls had him for lunch.
