BP Worker, Michael from Chicago

Suzi met Michael on during her morning Beach Adventure. (Beach Story to follow.) This is one way Michael's friends can see that he is doing ok.

Ok, a small story... Suzi left for her beachwalk about 8:00AM, but everywhere she looked there seemed to be teams of BP Beach Workers. Not wanting to be in the way, especially after her encounter (another story) with Robert, the Coast Guard Guy.

She wandered over past the bridge to South Beach Boulevard in Bay-Waveland. She was very happy to find a solitary place for her walk with no BP Workers. No offense to BP workers, Thank God for them. Suzi just longs for her Beach Walks to be returned to normal (without the litter). She misses her pier fishing people.

Anyway, she found this perfect mile for sand walking. (Turn left after crossing the bridge if you are coming from the East.) She parked in the parking lot at Bootler and S. Beach. You will recognize the spot because it is just South of St. Stanislaus.

Crossing the street there is an easy path to get down to the sand beach. Immediately South of that is a group of rocks. That is your land mark and how the mile is measured. (Suzi measured it with her car tripmeter).

At least for today, it was nice sand (other than occasional litter) all the way to the bridge to just pass the bridge heading North (you walk under the bridge.

Some Pelicans and other water fowl were out. The water was cool and clear near the shore. On her return to Long Beach Suzi noted that the BP workers had moved even further West and SouthWest to Henderson Point. Hopefully, that is just a preventative measure. She decided to stop in Pass Christian for a few photos. Suzi did not intend to disrupt any of the workers. Her plan was to show the team work from a distance if possible with her camera, and to photograph some of the new awesome equipment being used in the BP Beach Clean-up operation.

That was how she and Michael met. Michael was so friendly, you would think he was local (pre-oil spill|some of us have become rather grumbly lately).
