A couple of days ago I visited the Shem Creek Pier for the first time.  I have been driving by it since it was built and had no idea how far back it goes.  It was a cloudy day which made it even more random for that day to be my first visit.

Just to back track a bit, I bought my second camera in 6 months a couple of weeks ago and have been in the process of learning its features.  Anyway, I got out of the car with my camera and began the walk down the long pier.  Along the walk I saw what was the bluest Blue Heron I have ever seen, other birds, and seriously cool sky…other things as well.  Here are some photos from the day:
