Return to Sage Beach

Heavy, low overcast with periods of rain. Moderate winds and temperatures in the mid 50s.

I went out for a drive late this afternoon before going to the radio station to get my show ready for tomorrow.

Though the clouds were too low to see Mt. Edgecumbe, ocean conditions seemed calmer, so I made another visit to Sage Beach. I hadn’t thought about it until after high tide.

Today the tide was a few inches below where it would need to be to match the original photo. However, since rain wasn’t falling and the waves were down more, I spent more time trying to line up the foreground rocks and the church.

I had to push back into the stink currant a bit, but I think I got fairly close.

The Western Gull was there on a rock again. It seems to like to hang out in this area lately.
