The beached boat…one of Winnifred’s icons.
When you saw a picture of that boat in various articles or reports, you automatically knew it was resting upon the Winnifred sands. Always there. Always in the perfect position to be admired and photographed. I’m afraid the poplar fixture is seeing its final days.
The hurricane pushed it into the dune breaking further its weakened structure. Plants and the insects that live in them are making the remains their home.
Don’t think it will be dismantled and the pieces used for fire wood?? Or maybe it will just be overcome by nature??? Or maybe some industrious Winnifred advocate will patch it, paint it pretty bright colors and write Winnifred Beach on the side???
I would hate to not see it there any more.
I was just told my meal is ready.
I always love a local beach - even in Negril I tend to hang out at the local beach by the roundabout (as long as the river don't come down). The people watching is way more interesting to me there.
Just lovely......
Tee and I used Cynthia's rest room on our first visit to Winnifred, I think you may have been off taking photos/exploring. During that visit Otis told us not to use the public restroom, glad to know it's cleaner now.
So true Goldilocks. You can’t help but truly enjoy the fun they have in the water. Give them a beach ball and the kids are out there chasing it for hours. My favorite to watch is when they hoist someone up and they flip up high in the air then into the water. Wait till you and Jitterbug see the pictures from another beach I visited for the first time. I didn’t want that day to end.
Sammy, that was the time I didn’t eat so yeah I was most likely walking and snapping pictures. Again good to know there’s a nicer restroom out there.
