By the seashore

Today was a beautiful October day. sunshine, blue skies, a nice breeze.
Marvin told me yesterday he wanted to go to the beach and we couldn't have picked a more gorgeous day.

He drove down to Huntington Beach, parked and walked to Ruby's for lunch. He walked with just the cane from the parking lot to the beginning of the pier, then walked the rest of the way with the walker. He did super well, didn't even stop to rest. There were surfers all around, people walking and enjoying the day, even  a pelican walking around and of course, the ever present seagulls.

It's always a little cooler at the beach, and it was a little windy, but neither one of us needed a jacket, it was nice. We sat by the window so we could look out to the ocean, but didn't see any dolphins. The lunch was good, we shared a Black Forest milkshake, and he had a new age burger and I had a super burger, they came with fries.

After we walked back to the pick up, the wind started to get a little stronger. I stopped to look at the windmills, and I bought one of a black doggie that looks like it's running with the wind. It'll be in the garden tomorrow :)

All in all a pleasant day.
