Stan loves to fish and fall is a great time for that on the Texas coast.
After a strong Blue Norther’ or Arctic Blast like we had this past week the
water is crystal clear and the tide is very low…making it a good time to pick
up oysters. Yesterday the wind quit blowing, the weather had warmed up a little
and the sun was shining, so it was a perfect day to spend on the water and pick
up a few oysters. We packed a picnic lunch and spent the day looking for
arrowheads and sea glass on a few of the remote beaches in the area and then
Stan picked up some oysters for dinner. I’m not
a fan of oysters, but Stan loves them, so we picked up shrimp for me at the fish
market on the way home. We had a wonderful day riding around the bay, walking on the beach and enjoying the beautiful water.
