A good day

Rick and I went to Battery Point Lighthouse on Thursday morning. Since it was low tide, we could just stroll on out. At high tide, the lighthouse is an island. Rick said he liked seeing the ocean at such a low tide level. It was pretty cool. Once the sun peeked out, you can see how the heat was evaporating the water from the low-tide beach. All that is under water at high tide. My favorite part of the excursion was the purple flowers at the lighthouse. They were everywhere, and they smelled soooo sweet! Just filling the air with a great floral fragrance. I also enjoyed the view of Crescent City from the lighthouse. I included a picture of part of the coastline where you can see part of town. We also stopped at the Marine Mammal Rescue Center, which is right on the way to the lighthouse. There was a group of baby sea lions there, and they were just talking and barking up a storm. They were very cute.
It was such a nice way to spend the morning! I was in a good mood the whole day.

It sounds like you two are enjoying the time together! Cool pics of a the sights. It would be fun to "stroll out" to Battery Point when we're out there.
Love to you both,
Mom
