Becoming Bumble

Thank you again, Michael G! Much needed energy

Hanging Out

This shirt dried out in about 5 minutes with the warm sun. My socks were a different story.

Everything Must Dry

Probably my only chance to dry off my gear. So I did it all at once. Constantly moving it to keep up with the tide.

Beach Head

Following this "trail" was like a treasure hunt. Following the X.

Feet In The Sand

I promise I was the only one there. Not much to do but sit and pace here. And I'm totally fine with that.

Crash

Thunderous waves break on the cliff side

Sun Glassed Over

Sun glasses wouldn't have hurt on this sunny day. Did I mention this was one of the most important days of my life?

Boom

Didn't I tell you the waves were crashing hard.

Camp

My piece of flat and "dry" earth near Scott's Bluff. I was tucked away from the ocean but still within ear and eye's reach.

Fire Ring

Collect rocks and boom you got yourself a fine looking firering. No shortage of rocks or wood here. Dry wood on the other hand...

Front Door

This heap of wood served well as a wind break last night and what would come later this night.

Paradise Found

Thats right! I found it. My friend, Friday, is just around the bend.

Clothes Hanger

These gnarled trees served me well as a clothes line and a place to rest. Also gave me a bit of shade from time to time.

Sprawled Out

Yup even my rain gear got a chance to dry out. Sun enough to charge my batteries and even dry out my camera bag.

Beach Haze

The glassed over beach look almost like a mirror at times.

Study

Welcome to my temporary office. I wrote for what seemed like hours on this log.

Tom Sawyer Stare

Don't look at me while I'm writing! Ok I know I'm talking to a camera but still.

Captain's Log

I've been abandoned on this island now for 1 year and no rescue seems imminent.

Private Sun Set

The sun was setting and the beach was about to become more beautiful yet.

Three Seats

...only one butt.

Throne Room

Thrones fit for three mighty kings.

Beach Glow

The sun turned this grey beach into a floor of gold.

Beach Statue

Not really a statue of course but one worthy of Michaelangelo's signature.

Arched Stone

Or is it wood? Or was it petrified wood? Wouldn't you like to know.
