A Day at The Beach

Tweet

Yesterday the four of us piled into my missus car and headed down to the beach. We were all ready for a get-out-of-town day. It was a perfect day for a winter visit to the beach. Temperatures were in the 60(F)s and there was abundant sunshine. We visited the aquarium where Son2 used to volunteer first. It was farthest away. Then we had lunch at one of the new restaurants (new to me since I lived there as a kid), before heading to the beach I spent a good part of my youth on. Being back on the beach where I spent so many days as kid brought back a rush of memories, all good. I told my boys some stories of things I did there when I was a boy. Though they've probably heard the stories dozens of time, they listened appreciatively. We were treated to the antics of dozens of pelicans and seagulls diving on a school of fish just offshore. I took lots of pictures, thank goodness for digital cameras, including the one shown here. It took many tries to catch the pelicans in the act of diving. Today promises to be a busy day as well. We're trying to fit in all the errands we need to run before vacation ends. I'll be back later to catch up on my notifications. In the meantime, I hope you all have a blessed day.
