Today I tooled around in Barbie - with the top down for the first time in a while. I found a couple of Wildlife Preserves on the marsh side of Cherry Grove where some people were fishing and crabbing. They were trudging through the pluff mud or wading in the shallow creek, each with a net or a fishing pole.
It seemed like the tide was low, but coming in. I imagined they were fishing for their dinner, and marveled at the idea of catching my own dinner sometime soon. I'm not too crazy about finn-fish, but I love me some crabs and oysters. I may reconsider the finn-fish if I actually CAUGHT one and had a good recipe to cook it up. I had fish tacos in Mexico once, and they were DISGUSTING.
Anywho... walked around to see what I could see...Flowers and bumble bees, and more pluff mud and oyster beds. I spoke to a guy sitting along the seawall with a rod and reel and asked if he was catching anything. He said, "Nothing but a sunburn." Clever response.
I went over to the beach to make sure it was still there. There was hardly any traffic, considering vacation season is upon us. There were actually a lot of people on the beach - you can't tell very well from this picture... Mostly families on Cherry Grove, not a lot of action.
I drove around and looked at houses - there's a mix of old school beach houses and some beautiful brand new beach mansions. A lot of people get around on golf carts. This baby was parked outside one of the beach houses:
Woot!
