Because I&#8217;m no longer forcing myself to take a photo a day, I didn&#8217;t bother with any yesterday, although we did go out on the beach. It was actually nice to be able to enjoy the beach without having to worry about that.<\/p>\n<p>Beach weather can be changeable and the two photos I have here illustrate that.

Of course the clouds to the west were already starting to show up when I took the earlier photo but they were moving to the south at a pretty good pace. In the distance in this photo, just beyond the high rise at the end of the island, it&#8217;s already raining. As the clouds moved out and covered more of the island, most people moved back inside. Some, like me, stayed out to watch the clouds until the rain started coming down. At that point, there were lightning strikes within a mile, so it seemed like a good idea to be off the beach.<\/p>\n<p>It rained very hard for a while. When it had passed, Cathy, Dorothy and I walked east to the pier and back, enjoying a quite spectacular sunset.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We arrived at Ocean Isle Beach yesterday, after a relatively smooth and uneventful drive.
