Castles Made of Sand

I recently spent a week at the beach. After a week of distractions, I finally got a day to build a sand castle. Notice the windows in some of the towers. I build hollow castles. Here it is:


After a couple of hours, the tide returned, just like I planned.


And eventually did its work.


And I managed to get sunburned.

Deer Here

On the way home from the grocery store, as I stopped at the light in front of Whole Foods store, I noticed a different looking animal crossing the street. We have zillions of these bastards around the house constantly eating the shrubberies but something was different about this one.  So when the light turned green I crossed the road and turned into the church parking lot where it looked like it went. At first I didn't see it and then I turned to the left and there it was.  I took a picture with the window up first, in case it ran away and then I rolled down the window and took a couple more.  Here it is.
