DAY FOUR AT OAK ISLAND

Early morning sunshine through the window of the beach house woke me today. After breakfast we took a ride into the town of Oak Island and checked out the Habitat Re-sale shop and a couple other stores of interest but found very little. I did find an old bacon press at the re-sale store for $5 which I thought was a pretty good price.
High tide was around 10am so we were killing time until after lunch so that there would be some beach to play on.
After lunch we hit the beach and g-son and his uncle D became playmates.



This boy loves the ocean waves,the bigger they are the better.

Hubbie caught the biggest fish of the trip so far in this beautiful Pompano.

One of God's amazing colorful creations.

The clouds grew darker and the predicted 90 degree day actually turned quite cool as we sat on the beach.

A short very light shower of rain drops was enough to run us all inside except #1 son the serious fisherman who stayed on the beach and kept catching fish.
#2 son took a nap on the deck when the clouds lightened up and let the sun peek through enough to warm it up a little.
Hubbie and I made a trip to Walmart to restock our groceries and brought Sub-way back for supper tonight.
I talked to daughter this evening who is learning a lot of new things in her teaching workshop and will be finishing up tomorrow.
Talked to Rebecca and things are going good at home. She got the first tomato from our garden and she said there had been no rain today until tonight and it was starting to sprinkle a little.
Tonight all the men here went to the pier fishing leaving d-in-love, g-son and me at the beach house to relax for the evening. G-son is watching "Toy Story 3", d-in-love is editing pictures and I am blogging.
The "D"  or  fourth named storm of this hurricane season has formed of the coast of Africa and is heading our way. This is the time frame and track so far.
Thankfully our beach trip was this week and not next week !!
I have almost forgot to finish my decade pictures for this month. In July 1993 the kids were still having fun with their new camera.
This is #2 son in a close-up .
And this is evidently a picture #2 son took of his brother and sister.
Notice my sewing machine on the other end of the table !

Grateful to God for another wonderful,restful day with the family
Good night and God Bless.
