Summer Fun!


rent a cottage for one or two 
weeks at the shore
tons of sand for castles...


first batch of fireflies 
all the kids in the neighborhood
are out with jars
looking to capture a little night light

Photoshop? In a way...


Years ago, we took a little trip 
down the Oregon coast
stopping to see lighthouses
beaches and boats.

I had my very first digital camera;
the rest of the universe 
was still using film.

It was 2.1 mp and had a couple features,
optical zoom wasn't one of them.

I was plodding around my many photo folders
and ran across one grey and blurry shot.
It was the last stop at the coast and I was disappointed 
that the tide wasn't out
and I couldn't walk out to the lighthouse for a better picture.
So, I ditched the rain and fog and here it is.

season change


A change in the weather always has me looking forward 
I used to love the winter
how could I not? 
Wonders of Christmas 
and my birthday nestled in there, too.
For a child, it was a super charged season.
I loved the snow and lived where we got all we could ever want.
Ice skating and sledding any time!
I still love the look of snow,
but prefer to enjoy it from afar.

Visit...




Oregon Coast

Spring Break in progress and the coast is one popular
place to visit.
If you plan on swimming...
the water is a bit chilly.
Better to hang out by a bonfire on the beach.

Your spot in the Sun!



      A quiet little beach and seating for two with a little shade. It's your "Spot in the Sun!"
