Oh Sister, You Forgot Somethings

As me an my honey were on our date, we revisited some of the places we took my sister.

The pier on the beach, (right behind the bench there is where you fell over and couldn’t get up!)

 

We walked along this pier and people watched for a good hour.  It was something we should of done while you were here.  The pier goes out forever!  It is like you are in the middle of the ocean.  You would love it.

Taken from the top deck of the pier, off to the left on the sand is where we picnicked.

The view from the very top.  It was a balmy, breezy 70!  Your kind of day!

 

Then I took some pictures of the color of the water, it isn’t as pretty as it was in person.  It was turquoise that day.  And this didn’t do it justice.

Places to sit all along the way….nice for gimpy peeps like you and me! 

 

Then we went to the base.  The have a beach access there.  It is actually the river.  But, it is just like a beach.  Jim and his dad used to go here and set out nets and get shrimp and fish.  Then they would go rake for clams.  Wait till you see it in person.  Here is a sneak peak.  It is a bit of a climb to get in there, but I think you can do it.

Jim used to party here when he was a teenager!

Yup…that’s my party animal right there.  The beach goes way back, we walked way past that big tree.

Did you forget a few shells here?  LMAO!  I was having a fit, thinking you wouldn’t have pockets big enough!

They are mostly clam shells, all shapes, colors, sizes….you could fill a few five gallon buckets EASY!!

The water is calmer here, but still laps up on the beach like where we were before.

This is where we went down, the building in the background is our new “All-Ranks Club” for officers and enlisted men.  We will join when it opens this month.  It’s got quite a view.

Anyway, this is what I wanted you to see.  Just a few of things that you should of seen while you were here.  And I am sure there will be more.  We also went to a really good pawn store.  It had some good bargains.  The old man and rick weren’t there.  So it wasn’t the same.  LOL 

 

Well, I am off to see if I can get a hair cut.  Nothing else exciting going on here.  All my excitement left me last week!  HA HA  OH wait, the jehovah’s witness’ came by, I pretended I wasn’t home.  That was pretty exciting.  So…there you have it.  My sappy Saturday….
