intracoastal canal from the Colorado River. |

There are plenty of flowers blooming in Matagorda. |

We didn't see any fish caught, but the sunset and pier are
pretty at night.

The LONG fishing pier at the beach. |

Doris was all covered up to
avoid the sun after a bad allergy reaction to a sun screen. |

The waves were pretty strong at
the end of the fishing pier. |

Our neighbor caught this crab
while fishing with a minnow as bait (for fish). |
|
Tootsie & Ann joined us Friday
for a walk on the pier. |

|
It is way too cold for this! |

The last day while we were
fishing from the shore behind our trailer, our neighbor caught
this beautiful Jack Crevalle fishing just a few feet away from
us. He was using shrimp for bait, and it took at
least 15 minutes to bring him in.
A few days earlier
he caught a 70# Red Drum from the same spot! |
