lots of haze.. but oh a pretty morning

a drive over to the island and the beach just after 6am this morning.. e-z parking today on the west end at 40th street.. made sure I 'juiced-up' with insect repellent to avoid the biters along the dunes walkway to the beach-- still lots of standing water from last week's rain-- mosquitoes galore.. hot and humid .. 78* air temps.. 90% humidity.. plenty of the 'regulars'-- dog walkers and joggers-- already there with more on the way-- kept my distance .. a nice early morning..
