  • Hat Trick

        The sky is tipping its hat to us!         Moses Creek and the sun setting behind us.    

  • Sea Smoke

        When warm(ish) salty water meets the cold night air, there is a mist that calls to the soul like the sirens of myths and fantasy.   No danger to the land lubber, just a reminder that this is heaven now.       Yesterday's sunrise, caught lovingly by David Gardner © 2014. Thanks…

  • Pelican Sets Sail

        Does a pelican in the water ever doubt that he can raise his sails and take to the air? In three powerful strokes, this huge bird is airborne and glides away.         From the archives, January 2012.

  • Have Fun

        Remember to have fun today. Even if you are doing something really really serious, have fun. Make an inside joke just for you to smile at!       A couple of kids and a bunch of sea gulls on a pretty misty gray day, having fun! St. Augustine Beach.    

  • Oasis

        Oasis, do you have one, or a shelter from the storm?   When we learn to create these in our own hearts, life gets much simpler, and dare I say – easier.     St. Augustine Beach, last October with a waning moon.        

  • The Perfect Summer Day

        A day that didn't start out well, turned into the perfect summer day.   Difficulties can open up to good feelings and times, if we don't get too bogged down in the details.       Three special nieces at Loch Raven Reservoir in Baltimore.  

  • The First Pity Party…

      Nobody likes me, Everybody hates me, Think I'll go eat worms…   Remember this song? It gets side tracked about the worm and loses the focus of the pity party, but it could be the first (of many) pity party lyrics penned for m-m-m-my generation!   The photograph that I have of a worm…

  • Old Year, New Year…

        The past is just a goodbye,   A dream already dreamt.   The future a dream coming true.   Happy Dreams to all!     St. Augustine Beach, and sea oats sunset!       

  • Baking For The Holidays…

        What are you baking for the Holidays?         At the pool in Cocoa Beach, after a week of rain in St. Augustine! (Summer,2008) Reprinted with permission from LainesBlog, 12.16.11! ;>)    

  • Waves

        Where waves break, souls are mended.           Found this quote without an author at the shop where I work, Expressions in St. Augustine and it was true on the Cape and equally true here in my adopted Florida home.
