Beach time..

we headed to Boca Chica State Park, which is located about 70 miles from here.  it is on the Gulf of Mexico.  nothing there but beach..  no facilities.  lots of people fishing but we did not see anyone catch anything.  the weather was cool, windy and overcast.

on our way there we stopped at:


two of our volunteers were there putting up signs, so we stopped to lend a hand.. before heading to the beach.


I am standing in Texas, the water to the right is the Rio Grande, the land further right is Mexico and the white caps behind me is the Gulf of Mexico! 

this light house is in Mexico..


same scenario with the truck, Gulf, Rio Grande, Mexico and Texas...


beautiful flowers everywhere..


ID'ed a few birds too!




stopped at another State Park on the way back home..


we took a little walk then the tram ride around the park.  will come back with our bikes next time.  great place to see wildlife and enjoy the outdoors! 

been looking at photo blinds.. like this one the best so far!


long day but so much fun.  tomorrow is suppose to be cool and maybe rain!
