June 15 Halibut Point, quarry (Cape Ann)

The first part of the day we spent walking a trail around an abandoned granite quarry, then we clambered around on the huge rocks along the shore of the Atlantic Ocean. What a wonderful way to spend the morning!

The fresh-water quarry with the salt-water ocean in the distance. The quarry.

The observation tower (closed). The quarry. Wildflowers on the trail down to the shore.

Ocean view. Looking down at the rocky shore. Scanning the horizon.

Tide's coming in. On the rocks. One last look at the quarry as we hike back out.
