Good evening friends, well believe it or not I did close to nothing today!!  And no I’m not sick!  Maybe just a tad bit lazy or unmotivated.  This morning I took the bike and the dogs to the North coast on a mild one hour ride.  They pretty much just played or should I say laid in the water while I searched for usable pieces of driftwood.  After that small adventure I had to take apart and replace my shower hose.  That consumed a bit of time driving around looking for parts plus I made a quick stop into a new grocery store and like magic it was noon already!!  At 5:30 I met the tuesday riding group for a short very relaxed one hour bike ride.  We did the normal loop starting at the Aquarium riding the trails to Jan Thiel then to the salt ponds and back on the Calabash and Inca trails, it never seems to get old. 
 
So I guess that’s kind of my day in a nutshell!  I noticed throughout the day that there was a homeless guy walking up and down the street in front of Mambo beach.  At 6:30 on my way back from riding I ran into Bill and Christine (our two local walkers) and they told me, that’s the guy that walks up and down the streets looking for cigarette butts to smoke??  Yikes, no thanks!!  But then again everyone needs a hobby??
 
Your photo is another wide angle shot of the spectacular clusters of Eklhorn Corals that we have right out in front of the Sea Aquarium, they really are incredible!  Well, I need to go find some food and I still have tons of computer work to do tonight, be back tomorrow, Barry
