Thank You for Your Service Nov.11,2019

Veterans Day and images of Papa, Popie, GRRIII, Robert R., Big George, all folks related to me who have served.WWII to Iraq. I think of them as I bike along the beach picking up red, white, and blue trash for the "Catch Collage." I know the water temperature is dropping and the Sheepshead have been biting from jetties to the Landing.  The Trout are nibbling on the shrimp and breeder Redfish are spawing. The ocean is rich and alive except to the plastic trash.
