Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wife’s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update  January 2012: After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with its advancement – I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems. I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books.  Life marches on!  Â

Great capture Dana. I expect that the little green building is no longer there. Very cool

I am guessing that it was either moved back or is in the Pacific Ocean!

A really neat shot of this seaside place, Dana. I wonder what it looks like now.. It's fun going back to those old photos, isn't it? Lots of memories to relive..

a former doctor client of mine had a beach house there and they kept their thoroughbred horses there also. their house here locally was huge and I replaced so much wood beams 2x12's. everyone was custom cut. not one was a standard size from the lumberyard. the wood work took me one week alone and I painted the entire exterior and parts of the interior. they had a big lake house in East Texas. I went once there to do a bid, but I told her it was too far to drive great capture

Our cliffs in Bournemouth are made of the same stuff, but the promenade acts as a defence. Very interesting insects nest in the cliff face! Careful planting has helped to stabilise the surface

Quit a few places in the UK are like this, looks like a few good storms will have seen the end of that hut.

Interesting, we have a sea wall built to save the promenade from the sea. xx

What fun to find and scan the old photos. I visited the beach at La jolla once when I was about 14. I still have found memories of that beautiful sunny day on the gorgeous beach.

Just north of La Jolla is Torrey Pines and below Torrey Piney is Black Beach. In the the 70s it was a nudist beach and we used to go there often. There were thousands of people there every weekend. But then in the 80s the City was trying to close the beach to nudists. it was difficult to get to. One had to climb the steep, unstable cliffs.
