This could be my last post for a while, until BLOGGER gets the on again, off again "word verification" issue solved. With vision problems due to Multiple Sclerosis, I can't decipher the  CAPTCHA  codes. I do visit other blogs, but it's almost impossible for me to leave a comment a lot of the time.

 My blog is word verification free, but Blogger seems to have other ideas, and won't let me turn the word verify off.

I do not use word verification on my blog, BUT for some reason it has been showing up on my comment area several times today. I have turned it off repeatedly ...looks like a Blogger glitch.
Is anyone else having this problem?

At The Beach

We went to the beach on the weekend. The last visit until next spring. 
It was chilly(54F)and windy, we were the only people there!
 
Beep had a great time running back and forth on the shore.
 
 
We had a picnic dinner, and stayed to watch the sunset.

Every October, I keep a close watch on my feeders for these little birds.
It's always a thrill to see them when they arrive.
