Beautiful summer weather seems to be slowly arriving! Yesterday afternoon, I was in Hilton Head Island, SC. It was absolutely amazing with it being in the high 70s. You couldn’t pass up a walk on the beach could ya?

I was out there for about an hour. As I started walking back, I couldn’t help but notice all the jellyfish that were washed up on the beach lying there dead. Well, I don’t know if they were exactly dead but they looked like it. They weren’t moving at all, and I wasn’t about to go try to touch one! Continue Reading »
