Saturday, November 27th

We got up excited to get to the garage sales and every thing was looking good. We grabbed some coffee and hit the road. unlike last week we did not make a list and it proved to be our downfall. We just struggled to find very many sales, became frustrated and quit. You have to understand the road system down here to understand this. They have a series of major roads laid out in a grid like a tic tac toe board. These roads are basically smaller highways and we found out most people do not put signs on these roads as the traffic is passing by to quickly. The speed limit on them is 45 but the traffic flo is about 55. Anyway we went home around noon, ate lunch and took naps. We really didn't do much till about 7:30 when we decided to run to the beach and see what was going on down there. I messed around with the camera to see if I could figure out the shutter speed so I could take some night shots. I sort of did and took these shots. Hopefully I will get better with practice.
I took this from the beach..pitch black out there
took this one from the boardwalk..the pier
this one from the same spot looking at some restaurants

Deerfield Beach Pier
We then walked down to the sea side shops and grabbed a sandwich and a cold beverage....

Nice night..low 70's/ great beer...low 30's
 After dinner we were going to go home but decided to run down A1A to lighthouse point park. on the way over there we saw these ocean side home with the x-mas decorations on. I pulled over and snapped this pic.
rich guy's decoration..this is one house!
The rest are pictures of the lighthouse park.
That's the lighthouse with the light on top
