We traveled over to Martha's Vineyard by ferry. I wasn't expecting there to be so many open beaches; I pictured the shorelines all privately owned.
This sign appeared by a sandy road heading towards the beach, a sign that said you are welcome to drive, if you dare.
My husband put it in four wheel drive and on we went. What a fabulous beach this road led to.
In the middle of Martha's Vineyard is this wide open public beach! I am sure mid-summer, it would be much busier than we found it.
I was so excited to be near the ocean and on sandy beaches!
And, I think the mail jeep loved the adventure as well. Oh the new sights we seen, and traveling truly does expand your mind.
Driving down the beach on the Vineyard, can it get any better than this!
The majority of our time was spent seeking new sights, traveling down roads, and up hills and mountains.
Nature is a canvas that stretches far beyond what our minds can hold.
The ocean beating against the rocky shore made incredible sounds! While many flocked to this sight, to see Kennebunkport and the Bush summer place, I loved the shore!
I loved the wooden pathways that wound their way to the sea. The smell of the ocean, the sounds of the waves and the emptiness of it all, was simply perfect.
Traveling off season, we were mostly free of crowds.
It was hard to enjoy and capture the feelings of the vineyards. It would be so fun to go back with my bike and a few days to ride.
All the shorelines I visited along the ocean were unique and fun to see.
So many miles to explore. I walked short distances and tried to bring in the beauty I saw. This recovery road trip not only helped with my physical recovery, but soothed my soul.
These shores allow us to come and breathe in peace.
I loved the beaches before the summer season begins
And the very early sunrise - 5am the beaches are empty and full of nature's beauty.
We travel without an agenda, no real destination in mind. We wake and wonder the roads and make choices as they appear.
I am so grateful for being able to see and experiences new places. It has inspired me to travel and see more of the nature of this planet.
My heart and soul was very happy to have seen so much, and very happy to be back home.
Nature of home.
