Its only my second time there in 20-some years. My wife's family used to go there every summer for the month of August, and shortly after we started dating her family had a large reunion trip to the island. It happened to be the first time I met any of her family, and there sure were a lot of them. That trip (which was in August, years ago) the weather was mostly good, this trip the weather was cold, windy and rainy. So by my scientific sampling the weather is rotten about 50% of the time. Doesn't this look like great beach weather?

The bitter cold of this past weekend even kept DH inside. He took over this puzzle I had just gotten started on Thursday am. He has much difficulty walking away from a puzzle till it is done. I left him have at it and started another one. We ( I ) enjoyed the 2 1/2 days we spent puzzling and listening to our favorite music along with a lot of reminiscing about our 57 years together.

Great pictures.. we have had very little snow so far this winter. Yea!! If we can just get thru this month we will be seeing warmer days. This has been a strange winter as far as temps go. Quiet a few warm days. It is suppose to get up in the 40s and 50s this coming week. Some days they are calling for 100% rain.

janey_alabama. I have seen at least 40 of Peter Toths "Trail of the Whispering Giants" in person. I don't think that is a Toth carving in your pic. At least in my years of following his work, I have never seen anything like it attributed to him. Here is a few of his other carvings/sculptures honoring the American Indian.
