Walking on the Beach.

We took a longer than usual walk today, from the church we headed South to Lions Pride Park.

This picture is looking upstream from Lions Pride Park, you could sure tell there were salmon in the river, there were fishermen everywhere.  When we got to where we had planned on going back to the church, I suggested we take the long way back along the dike as my knee was feeling fine.  This is my eighth day of walking and I can sure tell a difference.  Part way along the dike, we decided to see if we could get down by the river.  We found all kinds of places to get down and ended up walking on the beach clear around the dredge spoils pile.

The longer we walked, the better the weather got, at this point we are just before the curve below the PH-10 bridge and the clouds had almost all burned off.

When we came around the curve, there were lots of fishermen on the bank below the fairgrounds, from where I took this picture, I counted 14 vehicles on the other side.  This setup was the most impressive, they have their shack built out of tarps, a deck with railing and steps down to the bank.  When I took the picture there was a guy on our side just upstream from me tugging on his line, it was hooked up on a branch with a Pepsi bottle on it.  He said that he also had a fish on, another guy was trying to help him, I don't know if they ever landed it.  From there, we followed the bank until we were even with the bicycle park and then headed back toward the church.  After picking up the mail, we went home and I started mowing the lawn really short so I could put the Moss Out on.  Boy did I bag lots of grass and debris.  After I got the Moss Out spread, we went out and cleaned up some blown down limbs and then cleaned the trails.  I got the motor home out, hooked up the trailer and loaded the tractor, spreader, sprayer and water so I can do the same thing to the club field.  I spent a little time rearranging the planes in the motor home so I could start carrying the club trainer.  After the great avocado salad and salmon burgers Vera made for dinner, I did the last of the loading for tomorrow at the field.
