September 9,2016- Sunday

In the morning we went to a Butterfly Festival. There were craft & food booths. They also have a butterfly museum, but the line was really long to get in it. I did get a neat outdoor solar butterfly light. We are going to go back there this week, when the festival is over, and tour the museum. It is not far from where we are staying. In the afternoon Richard wanted to watch the NASCAR race on TV, so he dropped me off at the beach. Being a Sunday, I knew the beach would be full and it was a sunny day. I love to watch little kids play in the water & in the sand. I didn't realize just how hot it was and I didn't bring the beach umbrella. The sun was scorching and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. On top of that there was a lot of seeweed along the waters edge and pretty many jellyfish could be seen near the shoreline so I didn't want to go in the water to cool off, even though there were a lot of people in the water. (Call me chicken, but I am afraid of those jellyfish) after a couple of hours I was sweltering. I was just going to call Richard to pick me up when he called that he was on his way. We came back and went in the pool to cool off. There were pretty many people at the pool. Several said they too were at the beach, but came back because of the jellyfish.
