Since I didn't get a chance to go outside on Saturday, I decided to take a nice walk in the filtered sunshine on Sunday. It was partly cloudy for most of the day, but it wasn't raining, so I was so happy to head out to Boulevard Park after quaffing some coffee. I saw these paddlers out there, along with someone who looked like he/she was walking on the water. I checked it out online, of course, and found that it's called
standup paddleboarding. See the person right behind the boat in the middle?
Yesterday, for the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, Astronomy Picture of the Day put up this fine capture taken by Alyn Wallace in Iceland earlier this month. It's fabulous, isn't it? Just wanted to share it with some friends.
:-)
LOVE that picture. Truly awe inspiring. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteIncredible Northern lights! Yay for spring! We are scheduled for a blizzard tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! thanks for sharing DJ!
ReplyDeleteThe first warm spell in spring is most pleasant.
ReplyDeleteLove that northern lights photo!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the Aurora Borealis someday. I understand you have to be way up north to see it. Yay for spring!
ReplyDeleteI've never experienced the Northern lights. Something to look forward to I guess. Although, I'm a morning person so chances are slim.
ReplyDeleteWow, the lights are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat northern lights photo is really cool!
ReplyDeleteAh ha, I see a new sport for you to try. That picture is beautiful. I saw a bit of them when I was a child. Amazing light show.
ReplyDeleteOur son and his family have paddle boards - they use them on lakes near their home here in CO. We also see them in the ocean when we go to CA. More snow due here this week, so I guess it's not spring for us yet.
ReplyDeleteIt may be spring, but we still have snow on the ground here in Connecticut.
ReplyDeleteI like the second photo with the unusual lighting.
ReplyDeleteThose Norther Lights are stunning!
ReplyDeleteWe have watched the paddleboarders, it takes some balance! :) Happy Spring!
Oh wow...I thought the photo of the northern lights was what YOU saw on one of your hikes! Breathtaking; glad you shared the image. We saw them once in Colorado....and many times when in South Dakota where my dad once lived...it's something to actually witness first hand.
ReplyDeleteThere is one single guy that does this paddle boarding on one of the channels here just outside of town...looks like GREAT exercise.
