Not a true vacation just an afternoon away from home and have lunch out of town. All along the wayside the lushness of summer spread out verdantly on each side of the road. Tall pines and mixed hardwood interrupted only by country roads and powerlines. An occasional home or a little community with neat yards looking well watered.
thick cumulus clouds
cover the summer's blue sky..
deceptive cover
No rain on the way down just a warm summer afternoon spent enjoying seeing nature.
Arriving at the restaurant chosen to eat a meal. Newly remodeled seafood place. Freshly painted, new flooring and decorations. Extremely nice people working in comfortable surroundings. Food ordered while waiting drinks served with hushpuppies quite greasy.
Then a fresh garden salad which looked and tasted good to go with the cool glass of Sprite..
broiled fish arrive with
overpowering odor...
non-deceptive
I am sure that not all of these restaurants are that bad..The picture is not of the one at which we ate.
Inspired by Scott Thirtyseven's Haibun contest
