    Magnolia Beach looks great, it is off-putting having those Chemical companies on the other side. You gave us so much information about the place which is a big help for people thinking of going there. it is a shame about the devastation that affected that area. The skies look so colorful and sometimes dramatic.. love the video and your singing together.

    Love the way you share the history as an old movie in a theater. Then, the more recent events on a laptop or television -- really clever! It's also great that you really inform viewers of the why of everything. As for the views . . . WOW!

    Hi Mela and Don. I loved seeing your new video format. Really interesting pieces of history and good snippets of the surrounding area to. I was surprised by the singing as I didn't know you both have good singing voices. I knew Don work with music creating it but not singing. I love the song you both sang.

    It’s not brown. It depends on the weather. In the bay if it’s not windy it is so clear and pristine. If it’s a sunny day it is a beautiful blue. If it’s cloudy it can look more grey/white/green colors.
