Baffled and Bewildered but Ensconced

Well am a little behind in posting, but we have traveled a bit and mini me feels baffled, bewildered but almost ensconced - that is established or settled (someone) in a comfortable, safe place.

a very blustery day! Sun setting

Things change ... and the sea fog came, went, came again and went again . . .

We've had some dramatic sunsets recently ...
