When we woke up this morning, the weather was cold, in the low 40s, windy, with occasional rain. As the day went on, the rain stopped, but it remained cold and windy.
It seemed like a good morning to do laundry, so that is what Richard did. Marianne stayed home and cooked. It felt strange not to go to church on Easter morning. In the afternoon, Richard went for a walk down the beach. The beach was full of seaweed and sandpipers. The picture is of the waves breaking on the beach.
Late in the afternoon, Richard's sister Diane came by with homemade guacamole. She then took us to the Sunday evening mass at her church, where she sings in the choir. A good sermon, urging us to be true to ourself, that we are all created in God's image, and that we can do what we need to do.
On the way back to the camper, we stopped by the the birding center in Port Aransas, and walked out on the boardwalk. We saw several new birds to add to our life list, a Summer Tanager, striking red, as well as a Prothonotary warbler and a Moorhen. We also saw several Roseate Spoonbills, always a spectacular pink. The last time we saw Roseates, we were in Florida.
The weatherman promises a nice day tomorrow, and we plan to stay here Monday and enjoy the beach. Tuesday we plan to move to the Houston area.
Richard and Marianne
