Good day! Depending how one looks at a "good" day at the Shore is a matter of opinion. Most would think of a "good weather day". But if you take a walk like I did yesterday in similar weather conditions as this misty Monday unfolds, it was quite an experience. No sun, no blue skies, no breeze, no heavy rain, no puffy clouds; just gray, damp, misty, foggy-like conditions, with everything including myself getting a bit wet. The weather allowed me the opportunity to see, feel and smell WW in a different way and react to it with awe. It was quite an experience. Everything seemed so different. Not only was everything gray (except for the brilliant flowers, trees and bright green lawns) but the low cloud cover even changed the sounds around me as everything seemed insulated and quiet. The aromas of the various dampened flowers and grasses combined with the sea air was intoxicating. So...today will be misty and gray once again. It's currently 57 degrees in WW and will go up to the high 60's. The fog and drizzle will continue all day today and into tonight. So, slip into that raincoat (or dig out that fisherman cable knit) and get out and walk around and get a little wet, take in the island from a different perspective and stop, look and listen to the island. It's a feast for the senses.
