Lately, the waves have been rolling in perfect tubes at St. Augustine Beach.
It's a surfer's dream.

My shadow tried to get away yesterday,
but I put my hands on my head and saved the day.
I mean what would I do without my shadow?

Once upon a time there was a lovely aster.
This aster was enjoying the last light of an autumn evening in Baltimore,
when suddenly it was surrounded by butterflies.
They were the most unusual butterflies that this aster had ever seen,
and quite frankly they took her breath away!
The End

The look, smell, and sound of this beach brings back memories of my childhood.
It is a mere inlet away from St. Augustine Beach,
yet the sand and the shape and the voice – so different- are worlds away.
A lifetime away…

Blue skies and gentle breezes.
It's still summer here, but not quite as hot,
and there's a scent in the air of cooler nights to come.

Just a short bridge across the river.
Easy going from shore to shore.
Without it, how to cross?
Swim? Boat? Pelican?
Are you a bridge?
Have you helped a friend get from here to there across troubled waters?
Has someone been there for you?
Perhaps everyone is a bridge, at one time or another,
sometimes without even realizing it.
Bridges are engineering marvels.
Some are plain, some ornate and others simply elegant.
We depend on them more than we realize.

Ever have trouble focusing on the most important thing?
So many distractions and excuses.
Sooner or later you'll put everything else aside and get to it.
Tomorrow!
No really, tomorrow!

In the hammock, St. Augustine Beach's version of sand dunes,
these flowers were a lavender surprise.
There they were, along with the yellow daisies and the blanket flowers.
By evening they were gone.

As above,
so below.
or,
you could say…
Heaven on Earth!

Another birthday come and gone.
No big resolutions,
just keep the spirit high
as best as I can
and be true.
Thanks to all dear friends and family,
I love you!
