early morning on Popes Island
early morning on Popes Island
Good Morning I hope your week is going well, mine is going nice easy and quiet, just taking it easy and relaxing for the most part, but today I go see the Surgeon to follow up with my Stomach Cramps and such and time in Hospital, and I will be sure to discuss the Hernia in my groin, which has been really bothering me the last few days quite painful at times.
But would you believe it, after yesterday where the bulge just would not go away and being painful for a good part of the day, this morning i got up and the bulge has subsided and it snot bothering me much, I know it will porobably flare up during the day as I Move around a bit, but kind of weirdly wish it was like it was yesterday now since i am seeing the Dr today
Ohh well it is what it is lets see what he says
Today I will share a few shots from a walk on Popes Island here in New Bedford MA not sure why I felt to add early morning in the tile as those that follow me know most of my walks are early morning, and the light in the photos or lack of it probably makes that obvious as well
Starting with a shot on the bridge heading to Fairhaven MA , the light son the left are from a hotel by the water that also has an Indian Restaurant we go to to pick up food now and again, well for for my wife she loves Indian food, me not so much so when she gets that I stop somewhere else for me

A little bit about Popes Island
Pope's Island is located in New Bedford Harbor, an estuary of the Acushnet River where it empties into Buzzards Bay.
The island lies just south of Palmer's Island and is connected to the mainland town of Fairhaven by a conventional bridge. and to New Bedford by the Swing Truss Bridge i have shared photos of in posts before
It is one of six small to medium-sized islands in New Bedford Harbor, and in the 19th century, it was still covered with many cedars.
Geographically, Pope's Island is situated within the bustling harbor of New Bedford, which is naturally sheltered by the Acushnet River and protected from storm surges by the New Bedford Hurricane Barrier, a structure built in the 1960s.
The harbor is a major fishing port and has long been central to the city’s maritime economy.
Historically, Pope's Island has evolved into a key recreational and cultural access point. Today, it is home to Pope's Island Marina, which serves as a gateway for boaters and visitors exploring New Bedford’s rich maritime heritage.
The marina’s location offers scenic views of the harbor, historic fishing boats, lighthouses, and the New Bedford Whaling Museum

Hello dear friend @tattoodjay
I'm so sorry you're having trouble with a hernia. It's very uncomfortable in that area of the groin. I hope you can resolve it soon with the help of a doctor.
What a beautiful place and what a beautiful sunrise.
Excellent shots.
Enjoy a beautiful day.
Let's hope the doctor can do more for you , time will tell .

Isn't that always the way it goes?! It's like when you take your car into the mechanic and it doesn't do the thing it has been doing for months before that!
Good morning, Mr. @tattoodjay
You're right to take everything calmly; otherwise, you won't solve anything. I hope everything is going well for you.
What beautiful photographs! I love this area you're visiting.
wow, it couldn't be more beautiful and incredible. Popes Island is truly a gem. Thanks for showing it to us in your post.
The blues and the clouds just come out so nicely in that first shot. I see exactly why you picked that to headline your post today! Great work! Those morning blues are always so nice to enjoy.
I hope all goes well with your surgeon, it may be time for a hernia repair... More surgery, just what you always wanted I'm sure! Not! But better to get that fixed before your intestines get incarcerated inside of it, not a pleasant to go through. Let me know how it goes!
Thanks and you were right have surgery scheduled fir the 29th but the better news is I am back to regular diet
I hope you recover your health so you can continue taking those great photos. Best regards
Thanks saw Dr today and am having a surgery on the 29th so it may be awhile

It's really sad when we feel something in our body but knowing you'll be okay.
On the other side, these pictures you shared are really captivating. I can't take my eyes especially the third picture which has a playground area with a big tent.
