Week Four, January, 2009

Week four has brought us to the end of our first month in Port Aransas...we continue to live such a blessed life and enjoy being with our friends David & Nadine. Our days consist of a long walk on the beach, seeing the local sights, eating and playing cards. The animals are the dolphins, pelican's and other birds species.....like my friend Diane said "we have gone from deer to dolphin".....these are not trained dolphins so when we do catch one emerging quite a bit out of the water we get very excited. This last week was also a huge reminder that life is so precious as we lost our dear friend Larry Peters. Larry and Loyal graduated together from White City, Kansas and we will miss him dearly....

the jetty's are filled with fishermen on the sunny days and Sunday was absolutely perfect...

It was fun watching this bird work his "dinner" in position to swallow whole....

the tail of one dolphin and the back of another

this pelican had just swallowed his lunch

sea gulls

the dolphins like to swim in the wake of the ships and this one was really jumping....our treat for sure...

This is one of the six ferries....notice the motor home on board....in fact, this motor home brand is Yellowstone....how about that?
