10 thoughts on “Caught: Larking around in wet sand”
Love the evidence of happy dogs and their people – I notice at least one brave soul went barefoot. Isn’t it still too cold there for running around barefoot?!?!
Yes there is quite a story there written in the sand! Not at all surprised that you could see all that by the way.That day it wasn’t cold at all.. People in t-shirts were seen……, even vests! When it gets that good, we do go barefoot here. Its because we know that in the flick of an eye it will all go away. Today its very over cast and we are all partially wrapped up again, ready to strip at the slightest of a glimmer through the clouds… because we all know that maybe tomorrow it could even snow! Such is our eccentricity.
Yeah, Par is about 10 miles or so from where I live. I don’t really know the beach, though. I usually visit beaches on the north coast (Perranporth, Newquay, Godrevey), for whatever reason.
We were visiting in Bodmin and dropped by Par briefly in the early evening. For a minute I thought you recognised the actual sand!. ( and admiring you very much for that) There are more more easily identifiable photos of the coast line available from that day!
Probably not this time I am afraid, as it looked like what ever it was had trainers on and there were signs of a couple of dogs bouncing about having a ball! ( Actually no sign of any other footprints there, prehistoric or otherwise and not a soul to be seen in what seemed like miles of sand)
Seriously, I’m only aware that the recent storms have uncovered ancient features on our shorelines, such as those ‘second oldest’ footprints in the world. I’ll be posting some photos of remnants of the formerly submerged forest on Newgale beach soon on My New Shy. Not as arresting as footprints though!

Oh, didn’t they have trainers in the Bronze Age?!
