Later this evening we went to Resident Access 5, off West Gulf Drive. The waves had brought in quite a bit of sand since I was there yesterday. I couldn't see many shells coming in, but there were still some left at the high tide line.

The menu at Big Al's looks pretty good. We don't usually go off island once we get there. Nice rollers working off the beach. I have heard there is sand building up right now. Hope you are enjoying some warmer temps. I'm currently looking at airline tickets for Oct.
your pictures make me feel like I'm right there. I visit your site every day - looking toward a May visit - thanks!
Your beach pictures and video are wonderful as always. And your flowers just beautiful.
I think the orange flower is called an "Indian blanket" - ???? Used to grow them from seed back on Long Island. They will grown just about anywhere, under any conditions, and volunteer the following year too! There were a boatload of 'em growing on a corner last year - I think maybe it was Periwinkle and Donax. Great colors!

I think the color is more like a burgandy and gold and I think it's what SCCF calls Gaillardia. I Googled it and, BINGO....it's also called Indian Blanket. You win the prize, I just haven't decided what it will be yet. :)
The yellow one is a Beach Sunflower.
