8/22/10 CASTLES, CONDOS AND DUCKS IN A ROW

SAND CASTLE
SAND CONDO?
ALL HER DUCKS IN A ROW

Sunday, 8:45 AM. 64 degrees, wind W, calm, as is the channel. The sky is blue but hazy with some lingering fog . The barometer predicts fair weather.
The beach was pristine this morning, not a human track in the sand, but lots of evidence of construction activity yesterday; castles and condos, two of which I present to you for inspection. They probably do not meet code, so they will be gone with the next storm. There’s a lesson there somewhere.
The mama merganser has all her ducklings in a row, a feathery flotilla of little fishermen.
