Effects of Tropical Storm Hanna

As Tropical Storm Hanna sped past us in the Atlantic yesterday, Alex and I stopped by the beach to see what she was doing....WOW...you should have seen the number of surfers out there! Normally there is one or two surfers at this location....I counted over two dozen at one point...and that didn't include the surfers on the beach watching bec they were to scared to get in the water with such powerful waves! (Not my words, theirs! I talked to them :-))

Keeping Watch...they had binoculars to their eyes most of the time

Lots of people out walking around, taking photos, shooting video, and just taking it all in

Watching the surfers

This poor guy was working very hard to make very little distance...I think it probably would have been faster for him to walk!
