nice kewl morning .. 64*

and NO RAIN..  after yesterday's downpours of heavy rains thruout the day a welcomed site with no rain  this morning .. the sunrise could have used some help but clear skies were in order afterwards on the drive home..a beautiful sunny clear day all day got up to 81*.. super nice

an empty beach looking toward the west end

SPOT netters close-in along the beach

they're 'regulars' every morning at sunrise.. they dress alike

these gals can't read the Keep Off the Dunes sign

Moorhen in the reeds at the lake

no gators around this morning

finally Mister Sun showed his face

after 5 days of overcast and rainy skies.. 'we don't need no  more stinkin' rain'  ..headed to the beach passing by the mouth of the Calabash River for a pre-sunrise pic.. the local North Myrtle Beach King Mackeral Tournament -- the Rumble in the Jungle--was in its last day as I watched the start with boats leaving Little River Inlet heading along the beach to their favorite 'secret fishing locations'.. stopped by Sunset Beach Pier--from a distance-- as the SPOT fishermen were at it.. the SPOT run started Friday afternoon.. slowed down some this morning but chaos will be up there until late November.......ahhhh.. da' sun.. nice !!

do we really need more of this crapola

still getting rain..big storms running just offshore .. for all my friends in Florida that always tell me that 'they need the rain' I think you might have gotten what you wished for the past few days.. we definitely DO NOT need any more rain up this way.. it's just uglee  :(

it won't stop

2 days of rain rain rain..forecast for more tomorrow.. where is da' HEAT only got up to 66* for today's high..not good :(

no sunrise..no fishing..

according to the forecast it was clear outside.. not the case as I headed on over to the beach to see the sun maybe peaking thru the clouds and more clouds..  left the fishin' gear in the truck with the NE winds cranking up there...  a 'kewl' temp morning down to 67*.. almost time for dare I say this--the  'sweatshirt' but still holding out.. the weekend 'spot-fishing' crowd were starting on da' Pier this morning... this is usually when the spots start running after a cold front or two starts passing thru the area every fall...
