Played 18 holes at a gorgeous course overlooking the ocean.
Walked the beach on Mustang Island (off of Corpus Christie) this morning. Watched the high tide upchuck our plastics and its dead fish. Kept my shoes on.

T...They don't have a beach but the walk along their Pier was fantastic. In the morning, the fog was extremely thick creating one of the most visually attractive scenes on our travels. I could fall in love with the Gulf of Mexico very easily.

Two (three?) weeks ago we stayed, one night, at the Watersedge RV Park in Rockport. They don't have a beach but the walk along their Pier was fantastic. In the morning, the fog was extremely thick creating one of the most visually attractive scenes on our travels. I could fall in love with the Gulf of Mexico very easily.
(I did mention to the "Full-timers" parked next to us that I suspected March is not August there. They, by the way, retired from Katy, Texas -- a nice place on its own -- to live at this park)
Hey, I have stayed at that park. Nice warm pool. Nice restaurant down the street. The pier is lovely.
Ordinarily the beach here on Mustang is quite nice. The previous evening I walked for several miles barefoot, watching the birds and warming my toes. But for some reason this morning it was quite gross. I wonder if cleanup crews come in the morning and scoop up the detritus before company comes.
They do so in Gulf Shores AL.
Making sourdough whole-wheat bread, completely from scratch (including grinding the wheat into flour). Been waiting a week for the starter to develop, its in the oven now. Will let you know how it turns out.

A couple of folks have PM'd me asking me to post a recipe/process. I didn't use a recipe, just conjured together ideas from other recipes here and there. Here is what I used and did:

Hope this helps, for any who are interested.
Well, I'm kind of reeling in my chair today with a terrible cold and down spirit. This past week, I've learned of four deaths. A close friend of my parents, my favorite aunt, one of my cop buddy's wife and found out today, my DH's favorite ex-employee and good friend.
