Monday- Back to the Grind

 The grind in the title refers of course to the action of sand beneath our feet as we walk to our daily relaxation station. We all enjoyed another day of fantastic weather in our temporary career as beach bums. The ten-day forecast keeps showing us more of the same. If the young fellow in the photo below does not look like Nathan it's because he's not. He's Jayden, who enjoyed playing with Nathan today.

The above photo shows the two of them together.

 The video below also shows the two of them but mainly features pelican activity of which there was much today. My admiration for these big birds grows as I observe their expertise at what they do. Among the rugged individualists of this species I have discovered an unusual pair that act in greater unison than Olympic synchronized swimmers. It's pelicans in stereo. But the video is about a solo performer. By the way, capturing these fellows on camera is definitely *not* an easy task. Many tries may yield one success, or not.


In general I can say that so far this vacation is doing exactly what it's supposed to do.
