PETS

The pets are having a good time at the beach house.

Brusco has a bird's eye view of the sound and all the boats heading up the waterway.
Bailey cat wanted to play cards.
Mother and Eli learned to play games on Sporcle.

badDOG

For once it was not my dog getting into trouble. Brusco decided the chicken in the trash was calling his name. Of course Brandi claims Brusco is the perfect dog and did not make this mess even though Katie Kate was next door playing with Sky. Maybe it was really the cat!
The pups love Karl.
Eli was taking a break from the paddling.

Operation Bumblebee was a missile testing program. Towers were built along the coastline from the north end of the island to the southern tip of the island. Missiles were fired at the north end of the island and soldiers posted in the towers would mark the time the missile came past their tower. Testing went on for some time on the island. The armory and several towers can still be seen on the island. Most of the towers have been converted to private homes.
Last year's fun at the One Fish, Two Fish house.

scampiNIGHT

Scampi night!
Yaaaaaa!, it's scampi night again on the island. Richard made us his famous shrimp scampi using fresh shrimp from the Shrimp Lady.

Folks, let me tell you it was worth the two year wait.

restDAY

Rainy day

It is a nice rainy day on the island. Rest time for the dogs.


Walkies yesterday in the sunshine at the north end of the island.
Serenity Point, located on the southern tip of the island. We are in the middle house. Nice condo's but more rules and regulations than Branderland.

kayakingFUN

Tuesday fun.
Off to Herring's Outdoor Sports for kayaking. We booked a guided tour this year. Jennifer, our guide took us up the waterway toward the swing bridge and around the bend through the marsh.
Birds, crabs, oysters and snails were on the tour. We even saw deer tracks in the middle of the marsh.
We paddled around for two hours. Long enough to wear out the group.
A fun time had by all!

moonPIES

Moon Pie sundaes

Eli has a birthday in October so we celebrate at the beach. This year we made Moon Pie sundaes. First nuke a Moon Pie for about 10 seconds, top with ice cream, caramel, chocolate, nuts etc. and finish off with whipped cream. Then you have yourself a Moon Pie sundae. My, my they were good.


Before the rain shower on Monday we had a game of badminton. The peanut gallery watched from the steps.

torment

There is a loft area in the condo you can only reach by ladder. The loft is located in the second story off the stairway. Bailey cat comes half way down the steps and jumps up in the loft. A pretty good jump I will tell you. Katie is standing at the top of the steps trying to figure out how to get to the cat. Bailey has a birds eye view of the living area downstairs and can see upstairs to keep check on Richard's activities. Never a dull minute.....
