This delightful scene greeted us on our early morning stroll along Kenny’s Walk near Shelly Beach. This image gives no indication of the icy morning temperatures we experienced.

When our home air conditioning system is in full blast, it's hard to imagine half the world is in a big chill! Actually, I prefer cold weather to hot - so this is especially appealing, John!

LOVE the morning sun as it makes its way along the rocks, John!!!<:))

A beautiful coastal capture...the lighting is PERFECT, My Friend!!!<:))

I'll trade your icy morning temperature for our 100 degree temperature. Philly is again under an 'Excessive Heat Warning'...through tomorrow (and maybe the weekend). I think this number 6 in the heat wave count for Philadelphia. We need three days of 90* degree temps to classify as a 'heat wave'.

I'm keeping an eye on my cicada killer wasps. The males arrive first. I've noticed the females this week....digging their burrows. And the sound of the cicadas is so much a part of our summer!!

You sure captured this beautiful scene with bravour, John. Fantastic sight!
