We
spent the entire day outside today.
We
woke to sunshine and clear, blue skies. I went to the beach and it
was still chilly and windy, and the white sand was like pin pricks
against your skin. We walked the inland beach instead and saw several
shore birds (have forgotten the names already), found the bike trail
for later, then saw TWO Great Blue Heron nests with birds sitting on
both. Amazing.
After
lunch, we rode the bikes to Langdon Beach, much busier than the beach
across from the campground. People were flying kites and fishing. We
learned about Pompano (just coming in to season) and Ghost Shrimp for
bait. All this from our campground neighbour, who was lovely until he
got a little religious and maybe a touch racist. We did more bike
riding and beach walking.
We got
back exhausted but very happy.
Another
neighbour's “Big Tiger” motif for his motorhome included a flag,
big blow-up tiger, a stuffed tiger, tiger lamps and a grouping of
chairs in front of an outside big screen. Guess it's the Clemson
Tigers and he IS a fanatic. And we found out later the Tigers got
trounced. But he has the spirit.
It was
a great and proper day by the sea!
