Wednesday Walk - Wednesday Walk - West Beach

This post if for Wednesday walk challenge
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)

Good Morning all, I had another planned idea for my last post of the year in the Wednesday Walk, partially because I haven't been out for many walks of recent ( although I have been working out in a VR app at home) but the other day I did actually get out for a walk and will share some shots from that walk today.

The reason I haven't been out walking is not because I haven't been feeling well, I am feeling good now, but the cold weather I feel more these days and with the Surgery possible coming up in late Jan I am trying to be sensible and stay healthy.

But that said, the Surgeon wanted me to get cleared by a cardiologist before he does the surgery, so I saw one the other day, and although my heart sounded good and my ECG was fine, as I have had blockages in my legs and have stents in them, she wants to make sure there are no concerning blockages in or near my heart, so I have t do a Stress test on the 19th of Jan and then will find out on the 23rd if she will clear me for the surgery or suggest anything else.

Now I am staying pretty chill and positive about all this, and the cardiologist made the point many times that the surgery is a major and long surgery so its important to do this. Personally I think mentioning that once would have been enough, nut i guess he just wanted to make the point.

But after that I felt the need to get a walk in as thats when I think best and relax the best, so I headed to West Beach here in New Bedford for a walk, originally planning just a short walk but walked back and forth the beaches for maybe two hours and even caught the sunset

Starting with a shot as I arrived at the beach

As the sun came lower we got some warm colors with the clouds I didnt expect to get much more color than this

just after the sun dropped below the horizon, most of the colors were gone and I was walking back to my car when some gorgeous reds came out in the sky

Weekly giveaway of shares

This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive @hellsveiah, @ancnoticias @sagesigma @lesmann @riverflows @jacoalberts

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.

This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines

Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.

Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.

Try and get a few shots not just one

Add a bit of a write up about where you walked

Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss

Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .

Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.

I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

Thank you for the Hive! Hope all goes well and that you'll be back to full health soon as possible! 😁

A simple walk is such an effective way to remove stress and organize your thoughts 😊.... I hope you will get better soon. Anyway, the shots looks great 👌.

Those beautiful colours reflected on the clouds when the sun disappears are wonderful. Thank you for this walk @tattoodjay 😀

I hope everything works out well for you! I would imagine it is a little bit scary when you have stuff like that going on. About a year ago we invited my father in law on a walk with us to see the Christmas lights and he had to decline because it was too cold outside. He has a pacemaker and had open heart surgery and he just can't handle the cold like he used to. Beautiful shots!

There's nothing like a good walk to clear away stress. My prayers are with you that the surgery goes well. I take it you're expecting to be off your feet for a long time afterwards...

I'm sorry for the surgeon but you are getting better! That's important. Nice photos, I liked the colours and also the combination with the places. Beautiful. And walking.. is always a medicine for mind and body :)

At least direction has been given with health matters, better to know in advance no surprises!

Walking the beach some amazing captures with change in the sky, normally sunrise now at sunset it is promising on red sunset for a good day to follow if I am not mistaken.

Hello dear friend @tattoodjay good morning
If it is very cold, and you are close to the operation, it is better to stay home, since if you have a cold, the surgery will almost certainly be canceled. Don't worry, the next study will work out well and you will be able to have the intervention.
What beautiful coastal shots, I love the colors of the sunset you have there.
I take this opportunity to wish you a beautiful morning

Great you got out for a walk 👍 nice shots as always.

and the cardiologist made the point many times

🙄
Too bad the cardiologist over emphasized the point. It seems doctors have trouble figuring out how much to repeat and what to repeat. No matter how many times they repeat what they think is important, I never leave without questions they didn't answer lol

Great shots @tattoodjay friend!

Oh wow, absolutely beautiful pictures from your sunset walk. The sky looks amazing. Waiting on a surgery can be daunting, but all's well that ends well. 2024 will be a great year. Thank you for sharing and keep enjoying the holiday season :}

avatar

Wow! The red you caught in that last photo is amazing!

I wish you all the best for getting a good report during your visit to the cardiologist in January and for the surgery.

Thank you so much for the Hive I received from you this week! I do appreciate it!
