It was about 70 degrees fahrenheit at around 11 in the morning, which is way too warm for me. As I sat at my spot, still sweating from the bike ride down, I felt the wind from the water and I cooled off a little. In previous excursions to my spot it had not been that windy, but this time it was. The waves were larger than I had seen and I could even hear them from on top of the cliff that I sat near. As I sat in my spot I noticed that almost all of the leaves had fallen off of the deciduous trees, giving me all of the visual cues of a cool New England autumn day that I had experienced many times before, and that I was not currently experiencing. A few of the ground cover plants had browned a little bit but there were still some ferns keeping the green. While I enjoyed the view and marveled at the Cedar trees, somehow thriving while growing out of a cliffside, I saw, but mostly heard, a few Blue Jays flying around me singing their songs and felt pleased to have some company. They scattered when another hiker walked by but they didn&#8217;t mind me, even when I moved around a little bit, which made me feel special and a little like a Disney Princess. Overall the experience made me feel much closer to my spot and I am looking forward to develop that connection even further.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I chose to go to Rock Point on an unusually warm day for November.
