Hurrican Dolly gave us lots of rain two weeks ago and we have the mosquitos to prove it!  But younger brother, Tropical Storm Edouard (Edward if you speak English) stayed well north of Port Aransas today.  In fact, the weather forcasters gave us a 60% percent chance of rain for today..but somehow that whole scenario did not play out.  We are high and dry.  Beaches are clean and ready for visitors!  Come on Down!   Patty EgglestonPort Aransas Realty361-876-8991www.buyporta.comCheck out my blog!http://activerain.com/blogs/pattyegg

Excellent fishing offshore on Father's Day2008!  Limit on Snapper! The fishing was great and so was the company.   Ten hours in the Gulf fishing seemed like 5 minutes with Captains Wayne and Kenneth Kite.   What better reason to  move to  Texas?  New condos and homes under construction  with slips and lifts.    www.buyporta.com for more information.

Voting was the topic of the day at the Beach Lodge.  Hillary, Obama, McCain????  Who would take the party nomination?  It all seemed so important until one walked through the door to the Beach Lodge.  After a few comments one direction or the other, folks seemed to just relax, enjoy the view and drop politics from the conversation.  Once seated, one could see for miles out to sea today.  Unlike last night when the wind was howling and the sand was blowing, today, primary day the weather has been great.  Take a break to visit the Texas Gulf Coast sometime soon!

Every year weather turns a bit cooler and the palm trees get a break from the hot, hot sun.  Even though they don't lose their leaves, the palm trees almost always expect a spooky beach pumpkin carving.  Halloween is coming to Port Aransas and you can tell by the jack-o-lanterns on the beach!

The weather is perfect today for sailing today!  It is so exciting to the see the Elyssa up close.  Her rigging was perfect and sales were furled but looked very clean and new.  She is well cared for and sailed by a group of volunteers from Galveston.  They sailed her down to Port Aransas for the weekend and then on to Corpus Christi for a week.She is the official "Tall Ship of Texas" and wonderful to see up close.  You can see her berthed at the Texas Seaport Museum, Pier 21, Galveston,TX most of the year. www.buyporta.com

Tomorrow will be a beautiful day on the Jetties to watch over 250 sailing vessels arrive in Port Aransas for the completion of the Harvest Moon Regatta.  The flotilla departed from Galveston today and will sail through the night under the bright full Harvest Moon.  The estimated time of arrival is between 3pm and 4pm which could vary depending on conditions.  Come on out to the South Jetty.  Bring a chair and a camera.

All three Islands are Treasures hidden and yet to be discovered for the value.There are miles of beaches still undeveloped and dunes filled with lush natural greens. Though the beaches are vehical access, the beaches remain wide open and very few people can be seen; except for certain h...
