The weather was still deary but that didn't stop us from getting out on the beach. One couple from our group was unable to come south for the winter and it happens that they will be celebrating 50 years of marriage (hard to imagine but then Ed and I had a late start). We decided to write a message in the sand and send it to them along with other photos in a digital photo frame. Technology is great .... we also were able to record our rendition of Happy Anniversary onto the photo frame.

Waiting impatiently ..... I think Harold was expecting a blizzard (he's wearing the coveralls)

This morning the beach was covered with Portuguese Man o'War. They are very pretty but pack a painful sting.

Zaph was happy to find a ball washed up on the beach. Only took a minute to put a hole in it ---- much easier to carry when it's deflated.
