Happy Halloween---a Blue Moon .. and a Sunrise

over to the island before sunrise.. temps at 52* this early morning.. winds out of the North at 20-25mph so I passed on going to the beach.. plus it was Saturday and way too many peeps were around.. watched the Full Moon setting.. this was a Blue Moon-- which is the second Full Moon in a calendar month and on Halloween.. a nice sunny day with temps only up to 68* in the afternoon.. Fall is here as we get ready to turn back the clocks 1 hour overnite at 2am Sunday morning to go back to Eastern Standard Time.. rain also in tomorrow's forecast in the morning hours..

at the house this Halloween evening

more wind.. a bit kewler but nice

 another pretty morning.. the temp at 65* was a bit lower than yesterday's 75* .. winds were still there South at 10-15mph so sweatshirt and shorts were in order.. Gale Warnings were still posted .. let's see if the message I left in the sand is seen in one of my pics.. warmed up nicely--sunny.. but this is just setting the stage for next week's kewler early morning temps in the low 40's--ugh

 

windy with a colorful sky

on over to the beach this early morning decided to stop nearby the Pier.. quite a colorful sky before sunrise.. 75* and those winds were up at 15-20 with higher gusts and Gale Warnings posted as they continued on thru the rest of the day all with TS Zeta moving at quite a fast pace inland and west of us as it moves toward the NNE.. up to 80* this afternoon..

 a couple of short videos just before and after sunrise

shop shop shop at 7am.. no beach today

 headed out to North Myrtle Beach to 'Wally World'--WalMart-- for some needed grocery and essentials shopping at 7am this morning-- we go early with a lot less peeps around-- so no island or beach for me today... snapped this 'on the move' with my Note 9 phone as we crossed over the Intracoastal Waterway Bridge in North Myrtle Beach about 10 minutes before sunrise-- that's all there was for me today.. up to 80* this afternoon and sunny.. next week the temps drop big time for the early mornings

 

a nice quiet sunrise..

 plenty of the regulars-- dog walkers-- at 40th street heading west toward the jetties and inlet. .62* with a light breeze made for a pretty early morning.. just like I like it-- nice and quiet.. mid 70's and sunny for the rest of the day---pleasant

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

on the island.. no beach again today

sometimes when there isn't a sunrise with plenty of clouds around and I'm over on the island in the early morning hour.. just gotta 'play around' with the camera settings.. swoooosh.. a tail-lite trail

 

an uglee looking wet early morning

 well like I said in yesterday's post.. 'I washed the car so it had to rain today'.. it is at 650am-- the sunrise is put 'on hold' this early morning ..looks like a 'stay at home' kinda morning.. 😪

 

another nice day

passed on going to the beach as I drove over to the island before sunrise.. a nice morning but with it being a Saturday I figured too many peeps out there on the sand.. 68* ... up to 79* this afternoon and sunny.. beautiful day once again  ..washed the car so you know tomorrow will bring rain 

before the sun got above the low clouds
