Miles Merwin found this mermaid during the storm surge from Ingrid. He took a couple of shots for the Moon. Rememberif you see a mermaid, approach with cautionThis one appears to have just eaten. Much like snakes, mermaids eat their prey whole, and can often be seen with a large lump in their midsection after a large meal.
Ingrid turned the beach into canals this week.
Whoa there pardner... somebody turned the Sea Pines sign into abstract art over the weekend. Maybe a comment on our topsy-turvy world.
The restaurant at Padre Isles Country Club is open but you will have to walk from the parking lot to get there.
