A Sunday AM Walk

We had a bodacious thunderstorm on Saturday afternoon.  The first time I have ever heard hail bouncing off of the sky lights.  Along with the lightening, thunder and wind, it was all very ominous. But it passed and the sun came out.

So I took my camera along for our Sunday morning walk just to see what I could see.  No storm damage as far as I could tell. 

Azalaes
Azaleas in the neighbor’s yard. Glad to see that the storm didn’t knock off all the blossoms.

Wisteria
Wisteria. I think I need to plant one of these in my yard. Love the color.
Strange Dog sign
Great sign. I should have this sign for Maggie. No dog could be stranger than her!

Maggie
Maggie knows I’m taking her picture but will NOT look at me. No treats, no Kodak moment.

And this is our backyard when we returned home. Another beautiful morning!

2014 Shrimpapalooza!

We had our third annual Shrimpapalooza parade on Saturday.  In the past there have been corvettes, marching bands and floats.  This year it was one commissioner, the King and Queen of the Shrimpapalooza, a few classic cars and other assorted vehicles, and about 100 golf carts.  And there were lots of beads!
