Views from the Porch, July

 

 

 

Since I am lucky enough to be staying at home at the beach house,

I am sharing some views from the porch today

 

 

 

 

 

 

You never know what is going to float by!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Boats of all shapes and sizes, parasail 🪂 boats,

charter fishing, speed boats…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t forget to look up at the sky

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lots of rainbows lately

and often a helicopter or two

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kite flying is fun on windy days

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beautiful sunsets

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our resident blue heron, Freddy,

wades and fishes

 

 

 

 

 

 

He makes a daily appearance by the pool for a drink of water

 

 

 

 

 

 

The morning after a violent thunderstorm,

we found a red pontoon boat,

which had broken free of it’s mooring,

snuggled safely next to our pier

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tiki bar boats seem to be the new thing this summer

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope they are all related

because there is no social distancing here!

 

 

 

 

 

 

You really never know what you might see on the waterway in front of our house

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is parallel to a strip of Perdido Key

which separates it from the Gulf of Mexico,

just beyond the beach road,

where you can see parasails floating over the water

 

 

 

 

 

 

After a full day of entertainment,

I like to wind down with soft colored lights

 

 

 

 

 

Good night 😴

 

Thank you for your visit!
