A Glorious Saturday In November At Sherwood Island
With temps in the 70's on Saturday people headed for Westport beaches to catch some rays, walk along the paths admiring the fading colors of autumn and trying to catch something good for dinner from the jetty.
Fashionista Bichon named Lilly and her friend, a Maltipoo name Liyla showed us how to look great while protecting their eyes from the glaring sun. Even Wonderwoman couldn't resist making an appearance.

And Also At Compo Beach
Not to be outdone by Sherwood Island visitors, Westporters flocked to Compo Beach also seeking some fun in the sun before the temperatures are expected return to somewhat normal for November, mid 50's, at least for Tuesday and Wednesday although they may be in the high 60's later in the week.
People gathered on the beach, dogs of all kinds played together and hit the water. Golden Retriever Nana was ready for her close-up. And it wasn’t just the dogs who enjoyed the surf. Three teen girls took the plunge as well, one can be seen in the lower right corner of the pic above even though the water temperature was 60º, (brrrr).

The nearly full moon rose in the east while a stunning sunset appeared in the west which was a beautiful sight both from the beach or on this sailboat cruising home for the evening.
