It was April 5th when we did this walk which now seems ages ago.  Time is just flying too fast!

DEKS Walk # 13

Walk # 13 was not only a walk along the coast, but also a walk back in time for Denise and Deena. As a teenager, Deena had gone to the beach with her step-dad Erin. Denise told the story of walking along these paths from town to Erin’s mom’s home, a walk that took forever and soaked them with rain. Erin’s mom was not so happy with him for having made Denise go on such a long walk with only some oranges for snacks. For us it was a lovely walk though not many birds for Linda and Charmaine to see. I walked most of the way with Deena and TK who, along with the scenery, are the stars of this email.

First things first, Deena’s hair. Help from “Husband.”

Thanks to the tree in the background, it almost looks like TK has a crazy strange Edward Scissorhands hairdo.

Walking to the coast.

Linda contemplating the view.

Deena said water used to cascade down the hillside when she was “young.”

We had to explore the caves cut into the hillside. Deena and TK

Very picturesque.

Pauline, Julia, Sue, Denise, Randal and his baby rock,  Me, Charmaine, Linda, Deena, and TK (a timer photo because Deena knows how to use my camera!)

TK and his friend.

This tiny crab couldn’t decide if it wanted to hide or pose for us all.

Randal sifting through the washed up beach “treasures.”

Heading back to the car.

I don’t know what this is, but the leaves remind me of the head and bones of a fish on your plate at the end of the meal.

Husbands……..

Randal who doesn’t braid my hair but did give me my last haircut!

In the background the point sticking up is the turn-around point for the Carob Warehouse Walk. If we had time Sharman and I could start at the marina and walk all the way here….”Had we but world enough and time.”
