Wednesday Walk walking out by and on Palmers Island
Let me start this post with an apology I normally make it a point ov visiting and commenting on every post in the Wednesday Walk community or using the Wednesdaywalk tag, but I was not able to do so this past week, but I should be able to this coming week.
I had some health issues this past week that knocked me down for a bit as I prepare this post I am feeling a little better my energy levels seem to be picking up but i still need to take it easy at least till I have follow up appointments with the Doctors tomorrow.
I did this morning think about trying to visit all the posts from this past week but i suspect I would run out of energy before getting tot hem all, so I decided its fairer to miss them all rather than commenting on some and not others.
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
For this walk post I was fortunate to have some shots from a walkI took last monday beside the Hurricane Barrier wall and heading out to Palmers Island

This island was discovered before the arrival of the pilgrims, English explorer Bartholomew Gosnold first surveyed the 6-acre island during his exploration of New Bedford Harbor in 1602.
the Island was named after William Palmer an early Old Dartmouth settler
The Island was used as an internment camp for Native Americans during the war of King Phillip around 1675, and later as a garrison during the Revolutionary war.
And then in the 19th Century a Hotel and an amusement park were built there, so the island has a very interesting history.
Sadly during the 1938 Hurricane all the structures on the island were washed away.

And as I walked over the little sand spit towards the island,

As I started to walk around the island I realized I had missed low tide as I normally walk around this rock wall seen in the next shot to the other side of the island, but there was no dry beach to walk on around it

So my walk on the island was shorter than planned heading back tot he spot I crossed onto the island, you may notice a couple of other people on the top of the rocky platform in the next shot

So I crossed over back off the island and took this shot looking back at it,

I continued to the end of the this side of the Hurricane Barrier wall, where there is this building which controls the gate that closes between the New Bedford and Fairhaven sides of the Hurricane Barrier walls.

I mentioned above about the tide coming in this last shot shows the little sand bar that becomes visible and allowing walking to the island with dry feet at low tide, When I first got the island it was completly dry, and just a few minutes later you could see the water rising over it

Weekly giveaway of shares
This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive @coquicoin, @nanplayergamer, @traisto, @moonlight222 and @bluemoon

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive one Hive from me and this week it is @TBA
Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.
Make me Smile Collaboration
As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,
Here are the rules for her challenge

Absolutely beautiful pictures, that looks like a great place to take a walk. The blue sky and waters must be quite calming and relaxing. Sorry about your health challenges but do keep a positive attitude and healing will occur naturally, the mind plays quite an important role in the healing process.

I'm sorry to read that you haven't been feeling well these days, I hope all is well. Don't worry about commenting on posts, health is a priority
What a charming place for a walk, without a doubt you will have enjoyed a lot this Monday walking there
have a great dayHello dear friend @tattoodjay good day
thanks so much, luckily this morning I am finally feeling I am getting closer back to normal and can get back into my rythm both with walks and visiting posts
That is good news dear friend, there is nothing worse than not having health, without it we are nothing
true indeed, tempted to go for a short walk today but my wife insists I rest up for at least one more day
Get well soon!
Thanks you
No need to apologize, we always feel you support. Get well soon. That is one interesting island.
Thanks I am feeling better this morning so I think I will soon be back up to my normal routine
Wow, what an interesting history for such a small slice of land. When you think 6 acres it doesn't seem that bad, but then when you see all the rocks and you realize just how little usable space there is, it kind of hits you. I can't imagine being forced into an internment camp there!
OHh yeah it amazed me when I looked it up all that had been on that island it looks so small and as you say so much rocky areas
I dont think I would want to be interred anywhere
Good point!
nice spot
Honestly, I have never been to a beautiful place like this, although I have been to many seas. I feel like it is a paradise in blue waters. I always wish to travel to another country and experience this relaxing atmosphere. Manifesting. Happy Wednwsday Walk Sir!
thanks so much and good luck that one day you may be able to travel and explore new places
I am so sorry to hear about your health condition @tattoodjay and I am glad you are feeling better, the photos as always amazing, here I leave my link in the challenge participation , cheers👋

Nice shots of the island and the history is interesting. That control house looks like it could be a guard house haha maybe the government is going to start back up internment camps 😮 😂😂😂
Thanks and LOL about a guard house I hope that isnt the case :)

Sorry to hear about your health issue. Glad that you're feeling better now. Don't worry about commenting posts, it's your health that matter.
Anyway, your pictures are awesome as always. The sky is so clear. What a great place to walk. I'm so envy.
Thanks so much yes great to be feeling i am getting better hopefully soon I will have the energy to get out for some new walks
It's so peaceful out there. I think I'll be out there just looking at the sea and waiting for high tide to see the dry land will be covered with water. It's fascinating how nature works. Great photos!
Thanks so much it is such a lovely spot, I to am fascinated by nature in generally and tides watching as the water goes up or down
The place and scenery are very beautiful also the picture is very clear. Thank you. Happy day.
Thanks kindly your support is appreciated
Have a great day
