Not a cloud was in the sky

By the time the after lunch walks were accomplished, it might have been late spring rather than early fall. There seemed to be a tendency towards going farther, but it was mostly in long gazes. The lizard-on-a-rock syndrome manifested itself, and we soaked up some vitamin D-making rays. Nice meet up with a friend who'd spent a week in Alabama with family; it was comparatively tropical there, and her family time was good. There are some lovely beaches along the coasts, from the sounds of it. One of my sibs was on "The Redneck Riviera" as they call one of the resort areas on Mobile Bay not too long ago. He said they pretty much had the beaches to themselves, and no, there wasn't anybody hunting in the wildlife sanctuary.
