Default First Hunt!!

The temperature is supposed to be a high of 39 degrees.... maybe a few degrees lower at the beach. Anyhow, tomorrow I am packing up the gear and heading for the coast. I happened to find a web cam at a restaurant pointing out to my favorite beach and there was plenty of activity there today. No sun bathers of course but plenty of walkers, joggers and an MD'er or 2.
Wish me luck on my first "trial run" with the Ace 250.
There is a Dunkin Donuts nearby so I won't stray too far from there!
Look for a green Expedition in the parking area right across from this view!! Hampton Beach Webcam La Bec Rouge
The camera works good during the day!!
