Ouch! Now that I have your attention, it's time for our Lazy Sunday pictures. Just a few more shots of things seen around St. Augustine before we start moving slowly towards the land of snow and ice. The one week of warm weather was wonderful and nothing relaxes you like the repetitive crash of surf on the shore.
You can drive up and park on Vilano Beach. The rip currents were still running strong when this was taken so there was no one in the water then or at all this week.
The 208 foot stainless steel cross at the Mission of Nombre de Dios in St. Augustine. This was a long distance shot taken from the top of the St. Augustine lighthouse on Anastasia Island.
This carousel is at the small city park on San Marcos Dr. As you can see, it's now decorated for the holidays. I snapped this as they were placing the stocking caps on the horses just before opening up for the day, which is why there are no children on the merry-go-round at the moment.

This is one of the unpleasant things about the beach here. Patches and I both have a hard time avoiding these sand burrs as we wander around our camp site. They hurt!
The obligatory goofy tourist picture. Denny was tired enough after a day of sightseeing to agree to having his picture taken. He's getting better about it.

Enjoyed the photos. Had never heard of sand burrs before.
Love the photo with our own Sheriff Joe Perry at the Old Jail. Hope you enjoyed your time in our city.
