Going - going - gone...

Just one question.   What's with a 'civilized' society that goes to absurd lengths to protect the asexual turtle egg from harm but can slaughter a human being without any penalty up to moments before his birth???   God have mercy on us here in the 'free' west.
Same deal here.  An injured coromant rec'd plenty of attention and concern from the beach public.  Someone was fiercely standing guard over it until the wildlife protection agency could be summoned to pick it up and nurse it back to health.   I'm all for stewardship of environment and natural habitat but when it comes to regard for human life - where's the balance?
Sorry, more wave photography.  I couldn't help myself.
A vast expanse of rippled sand testifies to our wind today.
Oops.   More shots featuring ocean.  What can I say?  It features rather large in my idea of a great holiday.

Sandcastle shots I am posting strictly for the pleasure of my friend Lilly.  Enjoy!  :)

Kinda reminiscent of Lord of the Rings for some odd reason.  Helm's Deep maybe?
Art and Jackie - parents of our crazy cousin Kelly.  What a nice addition to our company this week.





And now the day is done.  Time to head for home and start that unfortunate thing called packing.

Lilly loves the sandcastles. And sand. And sun.
And that you're home again :)
