Thanks! Your comment helps make going out in the chilly morning air, worth the effort. I’m wondering what the beach looks like this morning after 90+ MPH (145 KPM) winds last night! I’ll venture out later.

Randall Scholten replied 20 days ago
Thanks Marita… I need to go back out and check the beach after last night’s storm (90 mph gusts). Plus we have 25 foot waves today with an extremely high tide (the sun and moon are working together again). Should be quite a show. Thanks again!
