#FootpathFriday with a throwback to #Cornwall. In 2013, we hiked the #SouthWestCoastPath from Penzance to St Ives in the baking August heat. As you can hopefully see in this low-quality photo, the #scenic views were glorious!

And those colours ...

A wide, scenic shot captures a rugged coastal landscape in Cornwall. The foreground is dominated by a sloping hillside carpeted in a vibrant mix of flowering gorse, with its bright yellow blooms, and purple heather. The colours create a striking contrast against the green vegetation interspersed among them.
To the left, a well-trodden dirt path winds its way down the grassy hillside towards the dramatic cliffs. The cliffs themselves are dark, rocky, and jagged, plunging down to meet the sparkling blue sea. The sea stretches out to the horizon, reflecting the bright sky above. The coastline is uneven, with small coves and rocky outcrops where the waves break.
The sky is mostly overcast, with a bright, diffused light that illuminates the scene. The overall impression is one of wild, natural beauty, typical of the Cornish coastline with its characteristic flora and dramatic geological features.

A vintage steam locomotive, named the "United States Plywood Corporation 1", sits quietly beneath a canopy of beautifully blossoming cherry trees, creating a picturesque scene of nature and machinery at The Northwest Railway Museum (NRM), which is a railroad museum in Snoqualmie, King County, Washington state. it was built in 1926 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. Restored in 1974, operated until 1990. Was cosmetically restored in 2005 adding to the small town charm, in a short distance to the Snoqualmie Falls.

The currents of sky, sand and sea awaken in the morning light. As dawn breaks upon the shore of Hutchinson Island, three seabirds ride the wind flying past The House of Refuge The sandy shore ripples as the ocean waves crash upon the rocky outcrops of craggy limestone.

Three seabirds fly above in the swirling clouds and the sandy shore ripples as the ocean waves crash upon the rocky outcrops as dawn breaks upon the shore of Hutchinson Island. The early morning capture of the seashore is titled 'Current' because of the slight curl in the clouds, the wavy ripples in the sand and the waves crashing on the shore. There are currents in the air, the land, and the sea.

On the history of the location: Gilbert’s Bar House of Refuge was built in 1876 and is the last surviving house of refuge of 10 originally built all along Florida’s coast to aid shipwreck victims. Florida's house of refuge program started between 1876 to 1886 due to the need to prevent the high loss of life and sailing ships from hurricanes and dangerous reefs in a then largely unpopulated Florida. This historic building is on a picturesque portion of beach called the St. Lucie Rocks. Outcroppings of Anastasia limestone line the shoreline.

A vast Patagonian landscape showcases rolling green fields in the foreground, with Lake Argentino and dramatic hills behind. The sunlight casts a warm glow on the hills as the morning clouds clear. This is the scene at El Galpon del Glaciar, one of our lodgings in Patagonia.

Thankful to live in a state with so many options for day trips, road trips, outdoor adventure, etc. And it is affordable for those of us with little to no budget. #NewMexico #MomentofZen #travel #decompress #recharge #nature #scenic
