Raindrops are Falling!

It is raining some this morning. The clouds are filled with potential thunder and lightening. Be that as it may the clouds are beautiful to me. I am not trying to make a living outdoors and I am not trying to harvest a crop. I am not out on the water so the thunder is musical to me. Nearby towns are getting lots of rain today from this same system.
The beautiful hibiscus flower seems to have sequins attached by our mighty creator Jehovah.
I have been playing with my iphone four today and I like the results. I hope you enjoy.

Red Snapper Haul!



Don Williams was one happy camper yesterday! He caught two huge Red Snapper fish. He went fishing in the Gulf of Mexico on a fishing boat! He helped some nice people land theirs and they gave him their fish because they were going home to Austin and didn't think they could keep them!

Lots of Frogs!


There were dozens of tiny baby toads on the porch and around the fish pond this morning! We've been having rain and conditions must have been right for them! I hope they eat the baby mosquitos! We have been having mosquitos for a couple of weeks, due to the rain! We really need the rain but not the mosquitos. I guess we are never totally satisfied!

Hot Stuff at Laguna Shore Village RV Park!!!


We are so happy! The men from Dave's Asphalt Paving and Construction are fixing our road around the RV Park! They really work hard and don't put off the job! The job has been going as fast as the weather has allowed! We had some broken spots and age was getting to the rest! They are strongly recommended by us! Check the web site www.davesasphaltpaving.com or cal 361-815-3646. This company did our original road in 1996. We dug through places for expansion and renovations. Mr. Dave is a on site supervisor so he knows the job is done right!
I'll post more when progress is evident! Keep watching! We will be so ready for the Winter Texans and we are so glad we have two driveways!

High Tides on N.Padre Island!



Hubby and I went driving on N.Padre Island this afternoon. We saw lots of high water because of the latest tropical depression. #2 is what they are referring to this one by. These pictures are evidence that money does not buy brains. These people are driving in salt water to go fishing. There is no way to calculate the expenses they will have later because of this. Brakes will be the early casualty then all other troubles come along! The high water was up under the bridge way higher than usual! There were lots of people out enjoying the sunshine! The roads in Port Aransas were full but traffic was moving well! We enjoyed the drive and made it back to the Sonic for a Large Lime Slush! Talk to you later!

God's Promises Made Manifest

Yesterday about 6pm I saw this section of a double rainbow! It was a pleasant way to end the day! We were going indoors to dine and when we came out it had disappeared! So glad my Iphone four was able to capture the delicate hues of Jehovah's promises that the rainbow signifies. I love to see them.

Laguna Shore Village RV Park Driveway!


What a wonderful improvement to our RV Park! We had our driveway repaired! It is now wider and safer for the big RV's to use! Laguna Shores Road has been under a huge load of traffic and like all cities the budget of Corpus Christi has not allowed for wholesale paving repairs. Our contractor came out and did a really good job! We are so pleased!

GYM BEAU PREMONT




I went to Southern Paper and Chemical Store, which is our janitorial supply house, here in Corpus Christi, TX. I met this lovely cat there! His name is Gym Beau Premont! He was at a gym in Premont when the men from Southern Paper and Chemical were refinishing the gym floor! He has grown fatter and more playful every day since! I love companies that love animals, don't you.
