Wednesday Walk The Walk that wasnt
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)
Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk, plus I will be sending some Hive to a selection of those who participate.

The walk that wasn't
Now you may think the walk that wasn't is a funny name for a Wednesday Walk post but it will make sense later in the post.
These shots are from when we were heading to see the Kids in Cape Cod when they were staying there for a week and we saw a Sign for the BOardwalk in Sandwich so decided to go and check it out
and this is the view of the start of the boardwalk where we parked

The original Walk was a plankwalk was built in 1875 and reconstructed in 1992

I am guessing these names and many more are to thanks those who support the maintenance of the boardwalk

Now to explain the walk that Wasnt, in the first shot and the next shot you can see that there are hand rails on the middle of the bridge over the water, but not at either end and yet the Boardwalkis fairly high at that point, if you are not comfortable with heights

Now Lulu, who you can see in the next shot is not comfortable with heights, he did really well and made it out onto he bridge part, but was not comfortable with heading further on the boardwalk after the rails end, so we turned and headed back and went to another spot, I think she did well as when I got there and saw the first view I didn't expect her to even make it onto the bridge so I was proud of her, and we did plenty of walking on the rest of the day
