Walking Along Ocean Drive

Last week was Spring Break here in Corpus Christi, Texas and tourists everywhere.  The beaches were packed and traffic was backed up for miles.  So we decided to go downtown by the bay instead.  We parked on Ocean Dr. and took a walk along the water and seawall.  These are some great views we saw during our stroll.

On The Way To The Island


I took this photo as we were driving across the JFK Causeway from Corpus Christi to Padre Island.  We were headed for the beach to load up the pickup with driftwood.  For some reason there was tons of wood that had just washed up on the beach. One of the reasons I moved here from Illinois, is the wonderful weather and the beach.  Well, I guess that's two reasons.  The big bonus is that you can drive down our beaches for miles and miles. Padre Island National Seashore protects the longest undeveloped stretch of barrier island in the world.  It is one of my favorite things to do. I love to see what I can find that has washed up, experience the different wildlife and just relax and enjoy nature.
