The Pier by the Boat Ramp

I often prepare posts up to a week in advance and as I am preparing this here the smoke from the Canadian Wildfires has returned and I am being sensible today and even though I was wide awake early enough to head out and catch the sunrise, thought better of it and stayed indoors and was on my PC preparing photos

As I was editing a few photos I looked out the Window and saw that indeed Mother Nature decided to tease me and its a lovely sunrise with a beautiful warm glow, mind you some of that glow could well be from the smoke in the air.

Yesterday morning I checked the Air Quality and it was at the low end of Moderate so I headed out for a walk, while walking on a beach I started to feel itchy eyes and a taste in my mouth, so I checked the app and the air Quality had changed to Unhealthy for sensitive groups, and since I fall into the sensitive groups category I walked back along the beach and up to my car, probably a ten minute walk back to the car, and who knows how long the air quality had been bad.

Yesterday I did find myself coughing a bit and feeling chesty so I am glad I didn't stay out any longer and hence why its easier for me to be sensible and stay in this morning.

Well I went off waffling away again when all I wanted to say in short is

I did not got out for a walk this morning, but looked out the window and saw a nice sunrise which prompted me to look for some sunrise photos for todays post :)

And found a few shots on different days and various sunrises of the pier by the Boat Ramp at the end of the Cove Walk here in New Bedford

Often at sunrise when I visit this spot I would see fisherman out on the pier, but the few times I have been to this spot recently I haven't seen any, maybe the fishing is in another spot is better this year

and looking out over the pier, I took this while I was chatting to another retiree I see there often in the mornings, he heads out early while his wife is still sleeping as I do, but instead of walking he grabs a coffee and parks here and enjoys the view
