Gratitude: Bold Seagulls

It is Monday and time for a new Gratitude post.

This past week we were in Sea Isle City, NJ.

A little backstory about the vulture-like seagulls:

My daughter was eating caramel popcorn while walking on the boardwalk. A seagull swooped down and snatched the popcorn right out of her hand, about an inch from her mouth. It left skid marks on her hand. Shoulda snapped a picture but I didn’t.

Another guy walking by had one steal pepperoni off his pizza.

Very bold seagulls indeed.
