So friends, I have been missing from the #wednesdaywalk since the end of November! It has been mostly rainy, or dreary, or I have been lazy, etc.. So today I said I am going out and see what I can see. The back (North Mud Bridge) is out, and has been since X-Mas, so can't go that way. Southern bridge is also down to one lane, so I choose to stay around here. The 20 mile (and even more) detours are a bit much. So I went over to "Dim Witt" park again, first time this year!
So here is where you drive in,

And first thing is the fountain, I believe they are thinking about hot dogs in cars..

And here is a picnic area, I never paid attention to them before, so I did not notice the barbecue grills they put in,
nice of them to do that.😁

From there if we turn around we have a shade structure, no this will not block rain!

And here is "five laughing gulls" that I saw on one of the outcroppings from the fishing pier,

And this is how "unusually clear" the water was today,

Another Gull on a pole out in the water,

And a line of poles. A long, long time ago this was a pier, but got demolished after a storm,

Here is a Duck that was out there the whole time I was at the park,

And here it's getting "dive bombed" by a Gull,

This is the actual fishing pier,

And to the side we have the "Duck, Swan, Gull, Crane, Heron, and Pelican hatchery, (sorry I didn't get closer).
In the background is the JFK causeway, in about 5 miles is where it gets cut to one lane..Just before Padre Island...
