Here is the regular view this week. Of course, I have to make accommodations since the walkover has not moved. The next few photos will show you where the walkover stands as of Friday.
Here is the beginning of the walkover. The Gulf is straight ahead.
The first turn is ahead.
You can now see the Gulf.
A little closer now. You can see that the walkway takes a turn to the left up ahead.
Here is a bench where you can take a rest and look over the beach.
Here is a look at that left turn. You can see the walkway ends on the sand. This part is not finished as yet.
I am standing on the walk way in the approximate position of all the other photos. Those dark lines in the sand are car and truck tracks. Beautiful day in the mid 70’s, light winds. Yes, that thing in the air to the left that looks like a drawing of a gull is a gull
Last week’s photo.
That’s coming on well, John. It may detract from the putity of the coast, but it will be so much more convenient for folk, especially those with mobility issues.

It seems like they accomplished a lot in a week, John. I’ve been fascinated watching the progress. The walkway is looking really nice! I hope they aren’t planning to hit the residents with an assessment for it…
What beautiful weather. Still really cold here, but at least the sun was out yesterday. Makes a huge difference to have some sunshine. Have a sublime Sunday. Mega hugs!

Lots of progress. I thought with the walkway in place, motor vehicles may not have access to the beach anymore. One could hope. I’m jealous of your wonderful weather. I believe that seagull is calling me. 😀

Simply beautiful, John! Sidenote: Nonnie doesn’t like the seagulls. Once in Galveston, many years ago, one had the audacity to poo on my back! I run every time I see them now (secretly wishing I could find the one who christened me all those years ago). He’s a dead gull, I tell ya!

Good morning, John,
They’re making good progress. I think that walkway is good, as it keeps people from trampling through the dunes. That would do a lot of damage.
Have a great Sunday,
Pit

Hard to believe they’ve made so much progress on the walkway, John (but then again, y’all didn’t have the blizzard we had, right?!!) Anyway, thanks for sharing some of your warmth and sunshine — today’s in the 60s and Mr. Sun is out in his glory!
