Random-SPI 2012

Many times during the season Friends get together and head for South Padre Island and lunch at The Palms, our favorite place where we can watch the waves and listen to the surf.  

Lavonne and Joy reminisce over a photo album Lavonne brought.  They have been friends many years from Lake of the Ozarks but had not been together for a few years.

Bob making a point................

Another time just the Custins and Bills enjoy lunch and breezes at the Palms.

 A ride to the north end of the Island reveals the new construction going on and the "bargain's " on the property we can invest in. Get out the Checkbook.

Niece Katy Wykes  came to Texas to drive Mom and Bud home.  This being her first trip to Texas Mary and Katy took one day to spend on SPI,  She wanted to wade in the ocean , collect shells, buy souvenirs, see dolphins and eat some good fish.  Check, check,check,check and check. Did it all and much more.

"So many choices,  what is a girl to do?"

 Had to get a photo at the most snapped entrance on the Island.

 These Pelicans flew right over our heads in formation.

 Now this made us both laugh,  these people went for a walk on the beach and left all their food wrapped up on the table.  The Sea Gulls made fast work of the plastic bags, clips on the chip bag and even the cups. Squawking and screeching they swarmed and chowed.  We thought about waiting around to see their faces when then came back to the Secured [or so they thought] table.
