When I set out to get a sunrise photo of Old Fisherman's Landing (the last photo in this grouping) I didn't have high hopes because the landing faces north. I was pleasantly surprised when I hung in there for some time after sunrise and saw the glow slowly spreading from the east across the north sky.

As usual a wonderful selection of "O" photos. I love the cute bottle opener, and the last photo is really beautiful, great shot.

Charming especially the octopus statue and the seal opener.

Another delightful journey with you, ending with one of my favorite scenes. That bottle opener is very unique.
I have a question about those kind of elaborate sand sculptures. If it rains, are they diminished to just a pile of wet sand, or are they held together by some form of glue?

PearlsWithMyJeans you always manage to display a nice selection of photos for Fot-Friday. I really like the observation tower. It is so cool looking. The place for ice cream cones is very inviting. You live in such a wonderful area. Well done Jeans!

Thanks, Maudie! I saw the bottle opener in an antique shop and didn't purchase it right away. When I couldn't get it off my mind for a few days I decided to go back to purchase it but in the meantime it had been sold! So I took to the internet and found this one that is very similar to the original one I saw. Happy to have found it!

Thank you! Isn't the octopus cool?! Such detail. Very talented sculptor.

Glad you enjoyed this week's tour! Yes I think the sand sculptures have something added to the sand to keep it from collapsing. I've read about several different types of additives. Of the several dozen sculptures on display this year only one has had to be replaced so they're having pretty good luck!

Thanks, Shartaun! I like the observation tower too. I'm a little claustrophobic so I haven't gone inside but I can appreciate the structure from the outside! I returned to the tower a second time to try to get pretty cloud formations in the background and I was glad I did because on my second trip I saw that a company had been contracted to provide "natural vegetation management" on the grounds of the tower. Yep, adorable goats munching away! So cute .. stay tuned for V-week, "vegetation management"!

The hike to the native American burial grounds would be interesting I imagine. I forgot about the ticks, tick bites no-one needs! I especially like the medieval-style stone observation tower and calm dawn at Old Fisherman's Landing.

Thanks, Lilium! Old Fisherman's Landing was really peaceful that morning. Now that I think about it, it's always peaceful there!
