"On the Boardwalk"

Photo of our Boardwalk taken from the wharf. The tourists are here, the rides are up and running! I can here the screams and the waves when the wind is right but mostly it is the traffic that changes when summer arrives. My son will be flying in from Corpus Christi TX for a great summer visit...I'll be taking time away from this blog to enjoy him in the days ahead. I'll put aside my almost finished second piece and post it when he flies home.   HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE1

  6. I guess you moved to a "happening" place!! You are so brave in your moves. hope you have a fab time with your son. i happen to love tourist areas and the influx of summer visitors then later the quiet of winter.

    1. I grew up just east of San Francisco so this place was no surprise...almost like going home only better!
      Interesting attitude towards tourists...I know in the winter we have a feeling of taking back out city...the big cafes run "locals specials" so we have our rewards!
