We're Heeeere!

Pulled into Pioneer Park on Mustang Island on Monday around 5:00 pm, just after a big storm had passes through earlier on that dumped the only hard rain they've had here in about a year and a half. It was extremely windy all night and into Tuesday afternoon, but the 20-mile-an-hour breeze died down to nothing by 4:00, and the sun shone brightly through it all.

The dogs are noticeably happy to be back at the beach, too. We have a great spot with lots of green space all around. The pelicans are already decked out in their finest plumage for breeding season and were fishing only a few feet from the shore yesterday before dusk.
