quiet on the beach

must be all the 'tourons' slept in this morning...just a few stragglers.... another nice morning at sunrise.. no fishing again...tried at the lake... zippo..

a quiet morning

no beach today with the weekly Sunday Church Services being held next to the pier on the beach..68º and sunny with NNE winds lower humidity made for an unusual weather morning... tried my luck wetting a line  along the causeway.. nada.. a few pics then over to the lake also nada.. our regular drive down to Myrtle beach and Costco and a few other stores

a late afternoon thunderstorm

a couple of quick snaps while out shopping this afternoon..first one was at Lowes Little River looking across toward the beaches where a storm formed and was moving from left to right--unusual for this area as most of our storms run right to left up the coast.. the second is taken from Indigo Farms looking in the same direction a little while later.. some spinning clouds and offshoots started to form but never did--the beginnings of water spouts-- that form usually along the beaches and out over the inshore ocean waters.. showers and thunderstorms intermittent since early this morning around the non-sunrise hour..

a few early morning pics

more tourists seem to be around walking the beach at this early hour .. water temps are nice and toasty at 83º...  summer is definitely here as the fishing gets worse and worse..I guess that's why I bring my camera to the beach

sunrise ..and a day trip to Charleston

decided the last minute after getting back from the beach and sunrise this morning to drive down to Charleston for the day... beautiful blue skies turned into powder puff  skies when we got there just after noon.. a sunny day with temps topping out at 93º.. a nice lunch at the Charleston Crab House.. soft-shell crab 'sammich' followed by some key lime pie.. a quick stop at Whole Foods for some 'almond flour'--who needs this stuff??!!
