SkyWatch Friday ~ The Dunes of Sandbanks

It is dry in southern Ontario and especially in Prince Edward County.

PEC is an island sticking out into Lake Ontario and its weather is strongly influenced by the lake and winds.

So even though it looks like it is going to storm the weather often passes us by.

Not so yesterday, we finally recieved some of the rain the land needed. 

But more is needed.

To see other great skies from around the world why not join us at

SkyWatch Friday

and have a great weekend!

SkyWatch Friday ~ White sands, blue skies

Reluctantly I left Ottawa to visit friends(reluctant 'cause I was leaving my new grandson and family behind) in Prince Edward County and enjoy more beautiful walks in Sandbanks Provincial Park.

Even though the water levels are low this year the dunes are in fine form

and we are not the only ones leaving tracks in the sand.

A year ago today I was leaving Prince Edward County for home on the west coast.

and spring was a good two to four weeks behind this year.

With little snow and lots of wind this winter the dunes have definitely been on the move,

plus there have been some amazing blow outs.

The hike is worth the fresh air, blue skies and the views.

Happy Earth Day ~ It takes each one of us doing our part.
