August at the Beach

I spent a few weeks in PCB by myself.  No visitors, no Dominic.  *pouting*

I don't eat out by myself, so ordered pizzas and cooked in the condo.  Would run across the street for a couple of beers during Happy Hour at The LIQ.

Now that we have high speed internet, I've become addicted to Netflix.  That's basically how I spent my evenings.

Dom doesn't really enjoy hanging out at the beach anymore.  It's hot.  He sits under an umbrella.  It just doesn't turn him on any longer.

Thankfully, he encourages me to use it-  often.  (Think he's trying to tell me something?)  *grinning*

So.... no "people pictures" this time around.  Just swarms of fish, sunsets and clouds.

Heading back on Friday.  Cajun pal, Vickie is flying in from Lafayette for a week.  Yippee!

Celebrating Dom's SIXTH BIRTHDAY today!

Well, my little man is growing up!  We're celebrating with Filet Mignons, Baked potatoes and portabello mushrooms.

Have a great weekend, gang!

Last Batch- Water and Sunsets

Independence Day in PCB.... A View From our Balcony

The Fourth of July is awesome at the beach.  Although there are organized displays at both of our piers, the visitors on the beach put on the REAL SHOW.  I can't even imagine how much these folks spend....and they try to out-do each other.  It gets better and better each year. And to be able to enjoy it on our own balcony is wonderful!

(An amusing side note.... last year, Dom and our Son in Law were shooting bottle rockets off of the balcony.  Within minutes, there was a knock on the door from security.  Dom told the guy, "Geez.  I'm sorry.  My daughter is here for a visit.  I'll tell her to stop immediately!" )

Dom and I had crab legs, sweet corn (non GMO) and new potatoes for dinner, and watched the fireworks on the beach for hours.  Truly magical.

Something Wicked This Way Came..... SHELF CLOUDS

Over the past month at the beach we didn't have much rain, but some wicked looking "Shelf Clouds".  I'd only seen one of these during our 5 years at the beach....   These are from the last month.
