Welcome to day 128 of  365 photos…there is nothing like a ride near a beach area to find a lot of beachy colors. Many of these large houses are built with garage and storage areas on the ground floor in case of a storm surge during a hurricane. What I love is riding along these… Continue Reading

Let’s go for a walk…

Most of you know that there is a park nearby that I favor for walking. Many times I go there and don’t see much in the way of wildlife or birds.
