THE SIXTH OF THE SECOND

MORE BEACH FUN

Hunting Island, SC

Early morning here and 45 degrees.  Made it to 77 yesterday and was delightful.  Of course we won't kill any mosquito's or flies over the winter that way.  Need some good old frozen ground for that.

  I have no idea how a dog knows that you've been up till the wee small hours (one am) and wakes up at 5:30 am barking at some intruder, other dog, cat or a sound four miles off that disturbs her.  Generally, she is just barking back-up to some neighbor dog who has seen the same apparition.  But, you gotta check it out just in case.  Might as well make the Pike Place Roast and let the caffeine do the rest of the wake up routine. 

As you can see I have made some additions to the blog.  Again.  All just for you my dear readers.  On the right you can click or double click (whatever it takes) on some categories of Fine Art America.  You will get a chance to see some really good artwork in addition to my own. They tell me my stuff will show up in the third or fourth row of each category, but the fact of the matter is that the reader will get to easily see a ton of other art as well.  Trying to make the blog a one stop shop, shop.  Now all I need is some guy hanging over a shopping cart with a plumber's crack and make that the banner instead of "Lookin In".  Not gonna happen.

It was so nice yesterday that I went to Loews and bought some lime for the lawn.  God, that stuff has gotten expensive.  Used to be you could get a hundred pounds for four bucks.  Now it's forty pounds for sixteen.  And Washington says there is no inflation.  If you believe that I got another community organizer to sell ya.  All this effort and expense just to make the green stuff grow.  Then you gotta get the mower out and cut it twice a week.  Who cares from a hundred miles up anyway?

Congratulations to the NY Giants who played a great football game, Clint Eastwood who made a fantastic commercial and Madona who evidently has become a classic entertainer without taking her clothes off  (Recently anyway).  I understand, but didn't see it, that she flipped somebody the bird during the show but hey she would....wouldn't she?  Still rather be on a beach.

South Carolina beaches seem to be a little wider than up north.  A little less slope and with maybe a little less erosion apparent.  Certainly less people than lets say Sandy Hook in New Jersey where you got to stake out your postage sized part of the sand on Thursday night for the up-coming weekend cause there are so many people.  But then that's the Jersey Shore and a whole nother thing.

Myrtle beach is popular, but then that's because it's a major city, got the golf courses, and entertainment galore.  I'd rather go to Hunting Island or Edisto beach and just rock my time away.

I think that I'll call this one "Sea Gull"
