We had planned to head to Huntington Beach SP, but the back and forth phone calls just ate up the day. So this morning, we loaded up the bikes and headed to Huntington. We rode our bikes for a nice 10-12 mile trip.
Neither of us have been on our bikes since January and we need to get our ‘bike’ legs in shape. Hopefully we’ll be riding a lot more once we are finished moving.
Nancy here: There are no pictures of the bike ride. Why's that you ask?? Well... Bill lent me his smaller camera and guess what???
The batteries were dead:o(( Oh well, it was still a nice ride!!
After the ride, we headed down to the beach. Of course, Nancy had the HER camera in hand ;o))
What a great day—bright and sunny with temps in the mid 70s. Lots of birds, not too many people… a nice way to spend the morning!!
The ocean really looked like a big lake.
It was a perfect surf for this couple!!
As always,
Nancy found a lot of interesting things
on the beach,
in the ocean and
in the sky!!

Got to LUV those Pelicans!!!
The morning flew by and it was time to head home for a little lunch. This afternoon, I will be chilling and Nancy will be downloading pictures and trying to catch up on our blogs from January.
Only a few days to go until we shove off for Florida to pick up our ‘New Home’:o) I made a reservation for Monday night, the 19th, at a Passport America Campground called Walkabout. It is near the Georgia-Florida border, 290 miles, which is a LONG one-day drive for us. That will mean only 230 miles on Tuesday to get to Lazydays ;o(( However, it will be worth the effort. So far, the stars have been lining up for us and we are THANKFUL!!!!
Nancy here: A few more catch-up blogs from January!!

How did you get that pelican to balance on it's beak in the wave like that? I guess pelicans are just special. :-)

Can't wait to see a new header picture with that Journey gleaming. :c
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you're going to do a long day driving, but it will be worth it to arrive early at Lazy Days. It will be worth the numb butts... ;c)
Now I have to catch up with your postings in my reading. You have definitely been busy. Really fabulous pictures of the beach. Could you hear me sighing and longing????
ReplyDeleteSafe long trip! You can be Paul & Marti Jr.
:-)
Love love love the beach!! The shot of the pelican diving for his dinner is great! Safe travels to FL!
ReplyDeleteI love the kingfisher picture. Looks like a great day at the beach.
ReplyDeleteEvery day at the beach is a good day and it looks like yours was excellent!
ReplyDeleteWe'll sure be thinking about you the next few days. Don't forget about us while you're all cozy there in that Lazy Days park :)
Nice beach pictures. Can't wait to see the motor home. BTW what happens to the class B when you get your new MH? Did you trade it in?
ReplyDeleteYes, the Class B Pleasureway will be traded in for the new coach. Boy did that Van serve us well, but it is time to move on. From what I understand, it won't take long for it to be posted for sale on the Lazydays Web Site. Hope we get time to unload it first;o))
ReplyDeleteThere is little doubt that the PELICANS are Special;o))
ReplyDeleteYou just never know what they can or might do!!!
