And now a word from our sponsor

Today we went to Gaido's, a Galveston restaurant that's been in business for 100 years.  For a restaurant to last that long is pretty amazing.  We had some very good rich and buttery seafood for lunch. Mmmmm!  It was recommended by our financial advisor Keith Lucas.  Theorectically, Keith (or our Ameriprise account) is sponsoring our trip, hence the title of this post.  Oh, and the restaurant had a cool sign. 

Over the last few weeks I've seen lots of dead fish due to red tide. I've seen plenty of dead jelly fish on several different beaches.  This time I found a dead dolphin on the beach.  Really sad.  No picture.  Seems sorta disrespectful for a dolphin.   I'm not sure what killed the dolphin.  One other thing that was weird on the beach was a lot of soapy foam.  I've seen foam due to the waves, but this heavy foam blew across the beach.

The last two days have been extremely foggy.  I'm used to fog that burns off by 9 am or so, but this fog was all day.  It was thick enough you could only see 100 yards at times.  So, we spent a lot of time at the campground.  John's been working installing the towbar.  He's so happy, he got to buy more tools!
