Last afternoon of Lost Coast hike

Took off shoes (sand was hot!) and crawled into shade of this beach shack to rest for 15 min., then pushed on. Wind blowing hard and it was behind me! I put out arms to act like sails and got gentle assist.

Turkey Buzzard With Outstretched Wings

I took a backpack trip to the beach day before my birthday so I could watch the sunrise on birthday dawn. On the way I saw 3 turkey buzzards, this one drying its wings. They are magnificent flyers. (iPhone photo. Too bad I didn’t have my real camera with 300 mm lens.)
