“Water, Water, Everywhere, but not a Drop to Drink!”😅
Guys……see that large real of water hose in the second photo?
That’s how the dairy farmers irrigate their cornfields in the summertime!😊
The only “catch”, is that this water is coming from man made containment ponds, that are filled with liquid Cow manure!😳
Excellent for the crops, but definitely not drinking water Lol!🙄
Down at the saltwater bay, it’s a common sight to see people “Crabbing” from the elevated boardwalk at Boulevard Park!😊
I didn’t know what “Red Tide” was until we moved to the Northwest !😮
I asked GROK AI about Red tide, and how dangerous could it be…………….
“Silvertop, Red Tide is caused by Algae Blooms, and it can be harmful to both humans and marine life! It can cause respiratory issues in humans!”
If a Red Tide is detected,NO Crabbing signs are then posted along the shoreline, warning people not to eat any shellfish that they catch!🙄
This can last from days to Months!
Definitely a health hazard my friends!😮
Strange how the Ocean can be so beautiful, and yet so dangerous!😳
Silvertop is just here for a healthy hike, and to take in the fresh Sea air!🤗
I will leave the fishing to other’s………….
“Silvertop, tell PEPE to be careful, and stay out of the Ocean for today!”🥰
“Hmmm………. Maybe we should stick to the Mountains for awhile honey!”😍
Till tomorrow Silvertop Mike 😊

"Water, water everywhere and all the boards did shrink."
I remember this poem going back to High-school citing Coleridge's Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner. A little peek into my attraction to the sea and not farming land.
!PIZZA

I think I would prefer to Sea to farm land any day!😇😊
No mosquitoes out on the ocean Lol!👍😊

Ooh… red tide, no fun! I’ve been lucky enough to avoid it all these years.

I do love me some fresh crab, though! Some of my favorite memories of growing up in the Northwest involve trips to the beach, lunch in a little chowder house, and yes even a crabbing expedition. My parents had very little money, but they believed in “experiences.” So we drove out to the coast a lot, usually with packed lunches. And now and then we got to stay in a little beach motel, or buy saltwater taffy, or go out on a boat to catch crabs. Those were the days, my friend.

That sounds like a wonderful childhood growing up!😇😊
Family “ experiences” are so much more precious than money!😍

These photos made me long for summer, because here in the south the cold is brutal.

Stay warm, my friend, springtime is just around the corner for you!😇🤗😊
