Huge Waves in Buxton!

We had cabin fever from the rains yesterday and there is only so much laundry and dog hair vacuuming that can be done. We headed out to the Lighthouse Beach parking lot to view the waves from the parking lot as the winds are still crazy. I scooted quickly out onto the beach to get a pic of the ocean. I could feel the wind pushing me. Very beautiful!! A lot of other people were there doing the same thing.

There’s a guy out there solo, reporting on the conditions.

Stripey kitty on the porch of the BP in So. Avon today! So sweet. I wonder what's wrong with his ear? Two of them live at the station and only this one was hanging on the porch when we left. Pretty kitty!! I'm so glad they house and feed them!

No that’s a cat that’s been fighting usually tomcats. I had a male get loose and ear was damaged like a bubble almost if have it fixed it means surgery. I thought just draining would go back to normal it doesn’t. It’s either from claws or teeth.

Everyone get your shell’s shoes on. Will be some good finds after the wind dies down.

I had posted them in March of this year, and the thread was revived this week to ask about the porch kitty which was one of the ones I posted in March.
