Monday at Tower Road.

The self-pay box at the State Park, aka “The Iron Ranger.” People are supposed to get a green envelope from the post on the left, then stick the entrance fee in there, and then tear off the green tab and stick it on your windshield and put the envelope in the slot. The Rangers actually check the parking lots periodically to make sure people are paying.

Some guy ripping it on small but consistent waves Sunday afternoon at Tower Road. When he was done surfing, he picked up his board and jogged north until I lost sight of him. That’s a workout.

Self explanatory.

The surf Monday at Tower Road. The waves were breaking in the shallow water and when I pulled into the parking lot there was a surfer loading his broken board into his car.

These are pictures taken while I was out and about around Delmarva this week:

The Mountaire truck that crossed the center line and swiped a Mountaire tanker truck. It was rumored that the driver of the truck that crossed the line had a heart attack.

The beach at Tower Road today. The sun was shining and the water was refreshing and people were certainly taking advantage of the beautiful conditions.

Surfers and boogie boarders enjoy the little, clean waves coming into Tower Road today.

seagull_1.jpg
The seagull that pooped on me at the water park on Tuesday afternoon. Being pooped on by a bird is apparently considered “good luck” by some people. Those people all must have really, really bad luck.
