Halloween Trip to Bethany Beach

 The view from our room at the Addy Sea:

The beach soon after sunrise:

The Delaware coast had been hit by Hurricane Ian a month before. The storm there didn't cause the massive damage that it had in Florida, but the dune that was created to protect the town was partially eroded. This photo shows that erosion at the center of town.

The birds are undisturbed by the surf.

Halloween trip to Bethany Beach

 Here's Pam at the breakfast table at the Addy Sea Bed and Breakfast where we like to stay for short trips.

Here I am in a hospital emergency room after collapsing at dinner Friday night at the Blue Crab restaurant. After a number of tests it was determined that I had been dehydrated, and I was allowed to go without having to spend the night. All in all, it wasn't a terrible experience.

One more beach photo...

 Just before everyone left for home, Sean took this shot of the whole group:

Sunday, our last full day on the visit, in front of the apartment building we planted daffodils which is a New York custom in remembrance of 9/11.

That afternoon we took a walk in Greenwood Cemetary which is just across the street:
