Corpus Christi beach and getting busy...Definitely Spring Break. I've never seen that many people at the beach at 9:45am, ekk.

Of course the first thing we have to do is check out the cockpits!

Loved the new Flight deck

We really enjoyed our time on the U.S.S. Lexington today. Michael seemed to show more interest in the different areas and I loved that. We got there at about 9:45am and by 11am it started to get busy so we headed home.

The road between Rufugio, through Bayside to Hwy 35 near Portland was a blanket of pink (pink evening primrose), gorgeous.

~

We stopped downtown Goliad to check out a friends new store and I took a few photos while there...Very nice and loved being able to take my time and browse all the goodies.

Michael enjoyed his day and has told me Thank you numerous times. I also renewed our membership to the Blue Ghost (U.S.S. Lexington) and he was just tickled.

Today I used my Wide angle lens 10 - 22mm for all photos.

Tomorrow another adventure and a bit closer to home...The Zoo again but with friends this time :o)
