Bayport Inn

The Bayport Inn isn't your ordinary Inn. It's a biker, tourist bar & grill.
The place is owned by a local doctor!
Sure there are the usual Harleys, but there is also an awesome view of the marshes, and of course the bar cats. This is but one of two we saw. We sat on the back deck in glorious warm sunshine! The art here is different, a stiff fisherman in his rowboat and "Neverude" outboard. There is a small channel just below the deck. The tide was out so we could see small crabs scurrying around on the mud. The wading birds were everywhere, Great Blue Heron, Great Egret, Snowy Egrets, Little Blue, and Cattle Egrets scouring the marsh for their lunch.

I enjoyed a yummy fish sandwich, with fries of course. Then on to the Bayport fishing pier where we watched the Skimmers, and Royal Terns
argue over a Needle Fish. I caught the skimmer as he was just taking off. Out by the bay, it was much cooler even in full sun. Nevertheless, beautiful to take in on the last day of my vacation.
Tomorrow I'm back to dial-up, freezing cold & ice, and work. That is the cruel reality of the return to New Hampshire. But I will return to the sunny south again and again.
