Happy Thanksgiving, wishing everyone a great day! Be safe if you are traveling to eat your turkey dinner. I am publishing this post a day early in case bloggers will be away for the holiday. I'll be cooking.
On this post, I am sharing some photos from our trip to Erie Pennsylvania and a visit to the Presque Isle State Park. My hubby has an old friend that grew up in Erie Pa and he always talked to us about the Presque Isle State Park. I think he knew we would enjoy the scenery and views, the birds and the lighthouse. We finally made the trip and now I am sharing the scenes with you.
We arrived at the Presque Isle State Park located on Lake Erie late in the day. We decided to sit on the beach near the lighthouse and watch the sunset. If any of my blogging friends visited my travel blog some of these photos may look familiar. :)
There were a bunch of gulls around to entertain us, I believe they are the Ring-billed Gull.
I played with the stones and sticks on the beach, here is my beach man. Hubby was my model.
The Presque Isle Lighthouse
Hubby and I on the beach at Presque Isle State Park, Erie Pa. Our shadows are our faithful companions. They follow us everywhere.
Lake Erie looks like an ocean, so big.
It was a lovely sunset.
A sun puddle, all that was left after the sun went down into Lake Erie.
I am thankful to see each and every sunset and sunrise.
I am always thankful for my family, health, home and for good friends and for the food on our table!
I am thankful for good friends. I am always thankful for your visits and your comments.
Thank you Michelle for hosting. Thankful Thursday

Hi Eileen, I wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving. I am cooking this year for the first time in about 5 years. I will have my two grandsons here which is quite a blessing. Have a beautiful holiday.

Your gulls are gorgeous and your sunset spectacular!!
Love your creation of your Hubby. I hope his legs don't quite look like that but looking at the shadow it is kinda a good likeness!!
Have an amazing Thanksgiving with your family and friends Eileen.
Hugs from across the many miles :)

It has been a long while since I've been to Lake Erie, and barring any visits as a child, I don't think I've been along the American shore of it.

You show us that the sea and ocean can be magnificent even in late November. Those last shots have me yearning for the sea. Truly amazing wildlife shots and landscapes. Thank you. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving celebration.
