Last Days


My boyfriend got me a nice camera for my birthday, so you can imagine I have been going nuts taking pictures all over the island before I leave. I have gotten some great new pics and am pretty impressed with the quality from this camera. The pictures come out with great depth and color which is two things I hated about the one I had been using.
For my birthday we went camping near the ocean again and I think I prefer it over any other kind. I managed to down almost a fifth of Beam by myself and I remember standing in front of the ocean with a full moon shining down, the waves catching the light like diamonds and the warm salt air brushing my face. The water was black as tar except for one long strip of light dancing it's way up to the moon. I think I will end up settling down by the ocean.
I woke up early for the sunrise and missed some of it since clouds had rolled in but I still got some good pics.



 I have also fallen in love with panoramic photos and am trying these out as well. Today we went hiking at the westernmost tip of the island and the other day I checked out some higher points on the island. Most of today's post will be photos. Wednesday I land in Colorado for a few days and then head to Michigan. I fear I will be shedding some tears on the plane and hope to return soon to such a beautiful place.
