Sunday was a great day for a walk on the beach. It was 70 degrees with a mild breeze.
Lulu is recovering from a spinal operation. There is nothing like a day on the beach to brighten her spirits. So we drove to Carabelle Beach to see how it survived Hurricane Michael. The beach was definitely changed. It is now flatter - wider - cleaner - and whiter. The conditions were excellent for walking.
We walked 2 miles and had the beach mostly to ourselves. This is the closest nice beach to Tallahassee - less than 60 miles away on relatively empty highways. We usually drive an hour - spend 2 hours on the beach - then find a quaint seafood place to eat. We like to catch a sunset - then head home.
About 4 miles behind Lulu is Dog Island. The government used this beach and islands to simulate Normandy to practice for the D-Day Invasion.
This marker reminds us of the great works done here.
Lulu is doing very well after her spinal surgery. She walked the 2 miles painfree. She is not allowed to stand on her head - or lift heavy objects for a time. It is a miracle recovery. We are in debt to Dr Matt Lee of Tallahassee Orthopedic Clinic.
