Sunday – Fifty-Two Views of the Gulf

Here is this week’s photo.

You will notice immediately that there are a number of pop-ups and cars on the beach early. This is the way of a holiday weekend. The yellow morning glories are in full bloom and the purple morning glories almost invisible. There is also a big berm of sand where the road grader came by and smoothed the sand for the vehicles. You can see it beyond the path and it doesn’t look high, but it is at least two feet tall. A large number of footprints can attest to the amount of visitors here this weekend.

    Wow. I think this is the most significant difference we’ve seen. This looks like a drive-in.

    I was afraid it would be full of cars/trucks… I imagine it gets worse later too. But I’m sure you’re making the most of the day. Hugs!

      Yes. Staying away from the beach is the best way to make the most.

    I would much rather have been there last weekend – the older I get the less I like crowds…and people

      Up to a point. Can’t stand the loud drunken ones.

    Thanks for getting those drivers (who were blocking the view) out of the way.

      I waited until they passed by. They were there though. 🙂
