This beautiful weekday morning after Labor Day finds only me and my footprints on the beach. It may be 80 degrees with a light wind but there was no one out here but me enjoying it. Although summer isn't technically over yet, as far as tourism goes it is. Kids are back in school, families are back at home, and the beach is quiet.
Here's a great tide pool but no kids to play in it.
This view is looking south towards Manomet Point. Carlos Slim, the Mexican billionaire had an interesting idea when he recently suggested that everyone should have a three-day workweek. That schedule would certainly give people more time to enjoy the beach.
And speaking of enjoying the beach, this trusty four-legger was also enjoying this crowd free day. Unusual to see him so far from his human guardian (just a speck in the distance). Consider the humble dog, chasing gulls with never a chance to actually catch one. Regardless, he runs like the wind at full speed anyway. I think I'd like to be more like a dog - running and jumping and playing in the surf regardless of whether the water is cold or not - just having fun in the moment. Food for thought.
