Memorial Day

This past Monday we observed Memorial Day by enjoying a day off from work and visiting Bill's parents.  We were able to arrive at just the right time for high tide, and they took us out on their boat for a nice ride (lots of dolphins were putting on a show for us) and later we had some burgers, dogs, and delicious sides.  What a nice break!

Remember our fallen servicemen, POWs, and MIAs! 

Below are a some shots of the sights of the day.  Remember, you can click on the picture to see it larger.

Pelican

 I remember seeing this poem at Brookgreen Gardens and I've always loved it: 

A wondrous bird is the pelican.
His beak can hold more than his bellican:
He takes in his beak
Enough food for a week.
But I’m dammed
If I see how the hellican.

Bird on pilings

Folly Beach water tower

Dolphins were circling one another over and over!

Three dolphins playing together

Caught two more playing right off the bow

Flying low!

Taking off!

This one flew in front of the boat for a long time.
