June Gloom

June gloom is upon us, but I think the thick marine layer just adds a quiet, reflective feel to our usually sunny town.

I shot this photo from outside the Coronado Recreation Center; you can make out the boats from the Coronado Yacht Club, with the Coronado Municipal Golf Course peeking out from behind, and of course the omnipresent San Diego skyline looming in the distance.

You may have noticed I've been spotty about posting this summer... it's funny how a little thing like school vacation can throw an entire household schedule into disarray (mostly in a fun way), but I'm ready to start posting photographs of our little island community again.  

Hope you'll stop by tomorrow!

Glorietta Bay

Looking inland from Glorietta Bay, you can see the Hotel Del Coronado on the far left, the Coronado Yacht Club in the center frame, and a bit of the Coronado Municipal Golf Course on the right.  This is a fun area of Coronado, but there really are no bad parts of the island!

The Coronado Yacht Club And The Shores

There is a lot going on at this end of Coronado- in the foreground you see boats docked at the Coronado Yacht Club, then just behind the masts is the red peaked roof of the Boat House restaurant, and in the background are the tall contemporary buildings of The Shores condominium complex.  If we could leap over the the condos, we'd land right on the beach next to the Pacific Ocean.  How's that for location?

Three Sheets to the Wind

Excuse the title... I couldn't help myself, it was too easy!  This striking metal sculpture sits appropriately next to the Coronado Yacht Club, and rotates in the direction the wind blows.
