An excruciatingly busy day again with all the fun to attempt to use up. We failed. The flu shot left overs is pretty well finished after a short nap that was required about 1400 this afternoon.

Here is a few of the high spots of the day for your enjoyment and amusement.





The morning water at the rock pier was pretty and pleasant. The early sun was sparkling off the water as we meandered out to see if there were any fish biting.

There was this ribbon fish that hit the lure. They do not fight very hard but they are vigorous in the water splashing department.



Check out the teeth in that mouth. It is another fish where your fingers do not belong anywhere near the mouth.





While getting a puppy pet over by the harbor art garden this picture opportunity came up. That is an art sculpture on the left. It is pretty neat when you can see it closely. We liked the sun, clouds and boats in the picture also.



Then after supper we caught the moon showing off over the Rockport Beach. It was another nice photo. 



We watched it for a few minutes then the OFM got a wild hair. We headed on down the beach to get away from the area lighting. The OFM stopped Sierra and got it turned the right direction to prop the camera on the door to help stop the shaking for a long telephoto picture. This cheap little pocket camera did a decent job of getting this picture of the moon we think.



We actually shot five frames of the moon and they all came out just about alike.

We had a pile of other pictures left from yesterday to add to today's unpublished pictures and events but they will have to wait.

We are wondering if there will be anything else for us to do tomorrow for trying to have tooooo much fun. What do you think????

  3. Thanks! I don't believe I've ever seen a ribbon fish.
    Is that mature or how big do they get? I think there's
    still plenty of fun for you, OFM. Have a great day!
