                                            Happy 4th of July  

 Happy Independence Day for those so inclined - let us appreciate what we have - our freedoms and those who gave their all to protect those freedoms.. enjoy your day.. remember our Country -what we are and what we stand for in these chaotic times.. 

the early morning forecast was not looking good.. heavy clouds with fog.. I went over to the beach on the East End at Tubbs Inlet despite it.. a perfect early morning-- so much for the weather forecasting these days.. 78* with just 2 peeps in sight as I walked off the dunes walkway on to the beach.. a few peeps joined including a fisherman and a few others.. by the time I was ready to leave it was like -- 'who let the peeps out' they were heading my way-- yikes.. for most it was their last day in town as their week's vacation ends tomorrow   a Sunrise Video from My YouTube Channel at this link https://youtu.be/OT3613Cvqd4?si=Fr9lZTrIaUne64t7
