Evening Walk

We went for a walk the other evening. It was windy, chilly and lovely.
I am joining in with Skywatch Friday and Friday Fotos.
All photos taken in my hometown and neighborhood.


We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine;
But seas between us broad have roared
since days of long ago.”
― Robert Burns

““It was June, and the world smelled of roses. The sunshine was like powdered gold over the grassy hillside.”
― Maud Hart Lovelace,  Betsy-Tacy and Tib

"You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water. "   ― Rabindranath Tagore

“Home is behind, the world ahead,
and there are many paths to tread
through shadows to the edge of night,
until the stars are all alight.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

"You don’t have to live forever, you just have to live."    ― Tuck Everlasting



“Dear old world', she murmured, 'you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you.”
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

"Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North,
The birth-place of Valour, the country of Worth;
Wherever I wander, wherever I rove,
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love."   ― Robt Burns
“I really don't know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea, except I think it's because in addition to the fact that the sea changes, and the light changes, and ships change, it's because we all came from the sea. And it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and, therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea - whether it is to sail or to watch it - we are going back from whence we came."   ― John F. Kennedy
"The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever. "  ―Jacques Yves Cousteau

  1. Wow!
    You have a talent for matching your photos with perfect quotes...especially like the photo accompanying the Kennedy quote . I love being by the ocean...the sights , salt air and wonderful feeling of being a small part of something huge and wonderful...not so much being IN the ocean...funny , huh ?
    Have a splendid day , my friend !
