A Little Bit of This and A Little Bit of That

The kid and I are still at Riverside enjoying the easy days of summer. We went over and had dinner on the bay. It rained a little and then the sun began to shine through. It was low tide and I had never noticed the rocks that the pelicans are enjoying here on the right side of the photo. How beautiful is this?

When Beth was here, a dragonfly somehow made his way into the porch. We captured him and let him go. Fly away my friend.

Look at this little guy who was on the back porch. Precious.

Frankie is here with us; and he and Bella seemed to be getting "closer." That means, she was coming downstairs without my escorting her. The kid and I actually thought perhaps they may make friends. Well, no go. Frankie went after her one day. Thus, I had to bring her downstairs at 5 a.m. yesterday. Oh well. I was able to watch the sun rise over the river.

The kid and I finally had breakfast at The Foley Coffee Shop. I've read about it at Roadfood.com for years and have never made it over there.

We both had pancakes. Yes, I am still off my diet. Oooooof.

Watermelons at a local store. I love how they use this wagon year round for their produce.

Ciniminions from iHop. Yummy.

And a pina colada for dessert. Deary me. I best be getting home before I blow up as big as a house!

We're waiting to see what Bonnie is going to do. I hope she fizzles out completely before hitting the Gulf and pushing all that oil to Lord knows where. (The tiny red dot is where we are.)

I sure hope Bonnie stays away from your area....in fact, I hope she just dies out and goes away completely. The Gulf Coast surely doesn't need any more problems!

Sure sounds like you are enjoying your time at Riverside ... the wonderful food!!!!!! I can smell it from here! We've been watching Bonnie, too ... trying to figure out if we will get more rain. We've had a wet summer and I'm not complaining. If it is raining, it is cloudy and not a hundred in the shade!!!! Of course when the sun comes out it's a sauna, but I'll take whatever *cool* I can get!!!!!

Hugs--
