Palm Beach






Traditionally Memorial Day is the unofficial beginning of summer. Yay. Of course, down here in SWF, who can tell? Up North it's the first weekend at the beach; here it's just another weekend at the beach.

The top photo is the Oak Street Beach in Chicago (been there quite a few times) as pictured on the Chicago Tribune web site. Where the heck did all those palm trees come from? And why is the dude on the bike all bundled up like that? Guess it's a chilly start to the season on the Lake.

No palm trees in the other pictures, but we're getting that recommended daily twenty minutes of sunshine vitamin D on our bare skin - and we're not shivering.

Hey! You don't think those palms flew north for the summer, do you?

The WCG asked if Nenah built the sand castle. Then he said, "Where's Opah?"

Ah, little wonder of the world, Nenah did not build that sand castle because she is waiting for you to help her build one. I think we will need a lot of shovels and diggers for our sand castle. Opah is taking Nenah's picture with his camera. Are you busy with your camera, my little shutterbug?
