THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM

Hurricane Irene may be bearing down on NY and CT, so here's a view of
Captain's Cove Seaport, a small marina & restaurant in Bridgeport harbor...

We were there a couple of weeks ago on a beautiful Saturday....There are small
trinket shops on the dock & you can eat on the dock as well...Nights there is
music/dancing upstairs....& you can sit out on the veranda overlooking the Harbor....

And the Cove is the gathering point for some charity events, as noted on the sign...St. Vincent's is one of the hospitals in town & they sponsor a Swim across
the sound as a charitable event for cancer research...

Thie Big Easy ain't easy in the August heat

Grandson's pictures of Alaska

My grandson and his wife and baby just sent these pics of their trip in Alaska. They are beautiful so thought I would share here. They were visiting his aunt in Haines.
