Don’t over think this one, y’all, it’s pretty straightforward. Hint 2: Think of tunes from the tropics. Put your guess in the comments and I’ll see about cooking up something fun for whoever submits the correct answer.

Relax
Palapa, Rockport Beach, Texas September 2019
What a lovely spot to rest and unwind!
Duck Domes
Teal hunting season opened in Texas this past weekend which started me thinking about ducks, which in turn reminded me of my burgeoning collection of duck heads. Not real duck heads, eww. The first one was from an old decoy while the bit of driftwood bears a striking resemblance to Daffy Duck, don’t ya think?
Sunny Sunday
Sunflower, Copano Bay, Rockport, Texas September 2019
A cheery little flower to brighten up your day. Happy Sunday, y’all!
Beach Balls
Balls of Sand, Port Aransas, Texas September 2019
I’ve wandered across lots of sand art on the beaches near me in the past six months but this was a first. I liked the display, someone had a fun morning!
Expectation vs. Reality
Informational sign at my favorite sunset watching spot overlooking Copano Bay. I’ve been visiting here for months and hadn’t seen any hint of gators the entire time. Until today…
Hmm, gators clearly aren’t as fearsome as I once thought. And yes, I did keep him! I named him Gabe and he now occupies a spot of honor on my dresser.
Free Footwear
Mustang Island State Park, Corpus Christi, Texas September 2019
Wandering the beach after a storm I expect to find random items washed ashore. After the first couple flip flops I caught onto the theme. Perhaps the Gulf felt sorry for me since I’m always barefoot on the beach and wanted to remedy the situation? Before I left I mentioned to the Gulf that I also never carry money while beachcombing. Just sayin’…
After the Storm
Mustang Island State Park, Corpus Christi, Texas September 2019
Clearing skies reflecting on the wet sand.
Waterlogged
Empty Beach
Caracara Drying Out
Underwater Flower
After over a month with very little precipitation, the rain came in with a vengeance the other night (parts of town received three inches). As the storm blew away I traipsed out to the beach at Mustang Island State Park for an afternoon stroll.
It was completely empty. Mine were the only footprints on the sand. A pleasant switch from the crowds of summer and a small hint that the season is changing (even though the temperatures sure haven’t dipped yet).
Why, Yes. Yes, I Am!
Mustang Island State Park, Corpus Christi, Texas September 2019
I never know what I’ll find while wandering along the beach. I don’t usually take the time to read the labels on the trash I pick up but this one caught my eye. After I returned home a quick internet search informed me that it is a multi-purpose cleaner and degreaser called La’s Totally Awesome. I kinda like that name.
