First Beach Trip of the Year

 This Mother's Day we headed to the beach
 It was a mild day, no high winds.  I guess you could say it's the calm from all the storms that have been erupting
 Here are a few scenes from the Texas Gulf Coast

A quick snap before these little guys buried into the sand

A Portuguese Man of War...eeek,

and a Jellyfish!

 Teeny tiny wanted to wear Mom's hat.

Receding waves reveal hundreds of these in all colors.  They feel funny under your feet

Mother/Daughter toes.    She's already passed me by two shoe sizes at 13.  She's got the long , slender foot (toes in pink), I've got the short, wide foot ; )

What's a Texas beach without cowboy hats and flags?  Can you almost hear the country music?
And don't forget the surfers. : )  That's life in South Texas.  We're a mixed bag.
