Wednesday Walk Silver Sands State Park
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.

This weeks post is yet again a way back walk these shots are taken back in early March on my of my last walks on the beach, something I have missed and something i plan to get back into soon, not my long early morning walks I used to do at sunrise as My wife and I need to get out for some safe walks for fresh air and sun and she is not an early morning person like me, we have heard from a friend who goes on beach walks around 9AM that hardly anyone is out walking, so that's the time we are thinking of getting out for walks, and going down and walking on the beach since most walk along the sidewalk or boardwalk, so hopefully we can get in some walks soon, but anyway on to the photos
Starting with this shot of the boardwalk/bridge over the swampland of Silver Sands state park where people can walk from the car park to the beach
