We have had two days of overcast and cool weather.  75F is considered winter conditions in these parts  😥   I leave you with my final shot of the day, taken from an email from a friend.  It is sure to put a smile on your face.

    Hola Rod, some pretty ugly fish on the beach. Saw one yesterday with 3 inch spikes along its back ans a few on the chest area.

    I love the photo Kelsi but just so you know, as I mentioned in the post, it is not my shot. It was sent to me by a friend.

    Dolores, I love that photo.
