Life's A Beach


I've been going to the beach as often as possible lately. I like to go close to sunset and walk for an hour. It's so relaxing and breezy. By that time it's much less crowded, too, especially on a weekday.

I like to watch the birds as they move in and out of the tide dipping their beaks for seafood.

There was lots of this "hair" lying around. I think it's pretty so I created Blondie.
SkateBoy created a bearded sandman with a leaf for his Speedo. Apparently the sandman is a runner.


TechSon and One Fine Man walk together.

After a walk, Bella~Mella sits on the sand to enjoy the sunset.

Sunset on Sandkey...my favorite beach.

  6. Those of us who don't live at the beach may be experiencing beach envy. We'll probably head to Nags Head for a week this summer, and I'll enjoy all that you do every night. Lucky you!

  9. Your beach is lovely :).

    While I am enjoying the sunrise over the water, you get the precious sunset. It makes me catch my breath to feel that connection with you.

    I also love your beach people! How creative and fun!!

    Sink your feet deep in the sand,and hold on to the way the sun penetrates every ill and wipes away those daily hassles...this is what I will be doing (trying to do) as we head home tomorrow and leave the sunrise behind.

  11. Love your sunset picture! I am also a sunset lover. I live in West Texas and am convinced that God sent me here to enjoy the sunsets. I am reminded to take more time enjoying the creation. Thank you
