It is a reflection of how house/yard busy I’ve been the last few years that it has taken me this long to start logging more walks on the beach…! So far, I’ve walked from the beach by the house north of Norbury’s landing to Bay Ave, and all of the beach crossings in between. From there, I’ve walked down to the end at David Douglass park, but not all the crossings. I’ll be working on logging more miles on foot this fall, with a goal of traversing the peninsula and covering the beach crossings too!
