Almost over from Laurie
... taking pictures of animals and the scenery. We are here at the right time, their season starts with Easter weekend next weekend. Many things are still closed but I have always preferred beach communities off season. The weather has been perfect, blue skies and spring temperatures. It would be easy to spend a month here, exploring the coast and all the historic and natural sites. It is amazing how real the war is here still. We ran into a ...

We started down the road running parallel to the beach. This area is still farm country and it's not yet tourist season. We are in surroundings very similar to where we live in Tennessee. One of the neighboring farmers is even spreading manure today so it smells like Lost Creek when Tom is spreading the fields! The small "towns" here are usually just a cluster of a few houses.

Nothing Like Being There
I hope each of you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving Day with turkey, trimmings, friends and family.
There's an old saying "Seeing is believing." I have read about D-Day and taught it for many years but there is no way to explain what it's like seeing the beaches. Did you know the beaches stretch for over 50 miles? The cliffs the American soldiers had to scale was even more dramatic ...
