Observations

I have added a page called Glimpses.  These are pictures of where we are in our travels.  Take a moment and have a look.  Click on the word Glimpses on the right hand column.
Today I  watched charter boats come in across the channel.  A beautiful family of four, two little boys, flew onto the pier and excitedly unloaded their catch.   Mom took pictures while dad and the boys stood next to one flounder and three big trout.  I know they will remember this day for a long time. 
We chatted with a woman who asked if we knew anything about one of the sail boats for sale.  We didn't but a passerby on the dock said that an elderly couple lived there but that the man had fallen ill.  Later this afternoon I happily observed the young couple, 84 years young returning to the same sail boat.  How marvelous it is to know that you can live a dream at any age.
We took a side trip to Matagorda beach.  Very nice small beach town.  All about fishing and we were wishing we had our boat with us.
