The lady who I was on TV with about that Viet Nam letter thing a few months ago called me yesterday to invite me to speak the week of Veterans Day about Viet Nam. It's on the Jersey Shore but I think I can do it on a Zoom call because it's about a 3 hour drive from here and I don't want to take...
Whenever it rains hard, I go on my morning walk with a tweezers and a plastic bag to put in the earthworms I collect. Do I look weird? I certainly do so I pull a hood over my head so no one recognizes me.
Skinny earthworms that wriggle in the water are probably the best food you can give them...

Dave, except for this place, the rest of New York, even in the dead of winter, there are people on the beaches.:D
This one is private and hard to get to unless you are a resident. Plus, it's down 176 steps which has a locked door on top.
Diana this is the only place in New York where you can go on the beach and look both ways for miles and never see anyone. That is one reason I moved here. I also have a permit to drive on it.
That and the fact that we have the biggest and deepest pool on Long Island, 90 yards from my condo...
Good Morning.
This beautiful morning I came across this dead shark on the beach. It looks like something much bigger bit the thing in half and only left some guts.
Good Morning. Normal but beautiful beach walk this morning.
Amphipods are all small so I guess it isn't amphipod season yet so on the next moon low tide I will try again. I got about a hundred but mostly babies so I threw them in my UG filter to grow.
I figured these neon gobies were eaten or took a trip as I haven't seen the two of them since I added them a week or two ago. It seems at night, like here, they are all over the place.
On my morning beach walk/amphipod walking expedition I didn't get many amphipods, but I rescued this guy. I don't know how he ended up on the sand but he was only a few feet from the water and minutes from becoming Sea Gull breakfast.
Beach walk this beautiful morning.
I walked the beach as I do almost every morning and came upon this hat. I doubt it was from one of Columbus ships because it says something about a goat and Long Island and he would have called it The West Indies or Columbus Ohio. :rolleyes:

My wife had an almost brand new, $600.00 I phone so she decides to buy a "Waterproof" cell phone case made in China.
She went swimming with it.
Short story. We have to buy a new $600.00 cell phone.
Beautiful beach walk this morning. We were out late last night and I wasn't sure I was going to go but salt water is in my veins, so I had to go.
(doctors can't understand that seawater thing but they won't let me give blood because the amphipods clog up their catheter. )
This must be an...
