My daughter was in an accident on her way to work Saturday. She's all right and going to school and work. I've been thanking God ever since!

The beautiful home of our friends Amy and Charlie, located in Ingleside-On-The-Bay. I wish I had taken some pictures of the inside. Amy has an amazing GIFT for decorating. It's beautiful! And she and Charlie did ALL the work themselves on the (bought used) house...just awesome stuff! This is their boat and the back of the house which faces the bay.

Charlie and William on the upper deck.

Fish cleaning station

One of a number of large fish carcasses that had been thrown back into the water after they were cleaned. Crabs and small fish will make them disappear.























The Seaman Memorial Tower. Located at the harbor entrance and built May 9, 1970, this memorial tower is a monument to the fishermen lost at sea.

William and I met our friend Ken at the Moose Club for their Sunday Brunch, cocktails included, LOL...we're new to this, but that seems to be what "mooses" do here. The standard is three "screwdrivers" BEFORE brunch...WEEEEEEEE!!!! It's FUN, but we're glad they don't do this every day!
Anyway, then Ken came back to our place to watch football. GO LIONS! Hey, we're all from Michigan, we can't help it! LOL! Then we went to BERNIE'S to listen to some live music for a little while.

On the road from Aransas Pass (Texas)
to catch the ferry to Port Aransas (where BERNIE'S is located)
