From our Whidbey cabin we have to cross the street to get to Useless Bay, but Deer Lagoon is in our back yard. Like the bay, it empties on low tides, and so boating activities are limited to high tides. Then the canoe can be launched and the channel to the bay is deep enough to navigate.
All year round the lagoon is a great place for bird watching, and for me, it is a favorite subject for photography. On a calm day when the lagoon is full it is a wonderful mirror of the sky, and the light is always amazing. It is especially great during the season of long days when the sun rises and sets over the lagoon.

ReplyDeleteThis is so gorgeous, Linda. I love your header photo, too. It's so clear and beautiful. My son is climbing Mt. Ranier in Seattle right now. I guess he's seeing these breathtaking sights...oh my! And it's his birthday.
ReplyDeleteSuch a very beautiful place, Linda. I am enjoying your photos; they reveal your love for your family.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful place.
Do you know the history of the name "Useless Bay"?
I love your photos and had a great time browsing through your stories of the family visit. What a beautiful family you have! It made me remember one of my little grandsons telling me nicely, that I had a turkey neck. I'm thinking that's a little worse than being an old cinderella. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit to my blog.
Love the invention, I think Rialto needs special shoes like snowshoes to keep you afloat sand, and small rocks. Glad to see someone actually did it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lake, I love canoeing.. Whidbey is charming.
Linda, I'd love to use a photo to add you to my showcase on my blog...I like the one with beach sculpture sand or fort,, let me know if I could use one, or another...ok? Thanks, Sherry
