You old folks remember that sitcom.  Funny.  Bewitched had it easier.  All she had to do was twitch her nose.  Jeannie had to cross her arms and nod to make things happen.  Boy, were those the days of simplicity?!

Lori Wilson park looks like a parking lot.  Until we saw the wooden walkway to the beach.  Ahhhh the Atlantic Ocean!!  We walked briskly to the waters edge…

Maybe not briskly.  Obviously not in a straight line either.  You can see the wind causing wavelets on the surface.  It was a brisk day.

We waited for this fellow to finish his nibbling.

Then we saw this fellow.  You can barely see him in the waves.

Maybe this little video will help find him.

It was fun to watch him.  There were only a couple of souls in full wet suits bravely going out into the surf.  We felt the water.  Yep… 65°F or so.  On my finger tips, it didn’t feel so bad.  But whole body?  brrrrr

What a great afternoon.  As evening approached, we found an excellent seafood restaurant that was very busy.  Always a good sign to see lots of cars.  Busy usually means good food.  Large portions of oysters and shrimp.  A beautiful sunset to close the day.
