Windy Day!

My two sisters and I always try to get together on Friday. We take turns going to each others houses and have lunch together. This past Friday, we went out to Grand Haven, to wander around downtown.
It was extremely windy, so we went down to the beach to see the waves.



This is the scene that greeted us when we arrived.




I love to see the lighthouse, no matter what the weather is!



The birds seem to be unfazed by the wind and waves.






What a sky!




As we were getting ready to leave, the sun came out.
When we got back to the parking area, there were vans and cameras there from 2 local news stations. One was interviewing someone in a wet suit, getting ready to surf.
I don't think getting out in that water looks good - better to take pictures from the sidelines!

Is that a lighthouse?

I can't believe the clouds. There's no way I'd be out there getting ready to surf! Scary!!
