News From The Beach......



Hi everyone....

Popping in for a quick update...

Weather has been gorgeous...settling in nicely...getting lots of beach walks....reading....eating...

The moon on Saturday night was incredible...and the STARS! ⭐️💫⭐️ were so bright!

We sat on the porch til nearly 10 pm!

It was my birthday, and we walked for Grouper Chowder...Firecracker Tuna...with Sour Dough Bread in Olive Oil and Spices! Delightfully delicious!

Yesterday we met some friends for a concert...a Beach Boys wanna be group...lots of fun!

Still kinda tired from the drive...encountered every type of precipitation thru Michigan Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee. Georgia cooperated with lovely sunshine and warmth.







Found this $ bill on the beach! Worth $1.35 Canadian! Hahaha!






Just about to leave for a walk....

Hope you are all well...and not getting too much snow!

Enjoy your day!

           Cheers!

                  linda 🌞

  7. It does look lovely at the beach, and that is a Very Long drive you have made - no wonder you are still a bit tired! Birthday dinner sounds great, and lovely sunsets. You have found good luck $$$$

  12. Happy belated birthday, young lady. You sound cheery and happy in the warmth. We're in Ottawa for a few days, my BF wanted to skate on the Rideau Canal, such a Canuck. Gosh, they had a huge dumping of snow before we arrived. Have fun and enjoy the lovely weather. :)

    2. Nope, no skates! You know me, I'm into culture. Walked in the slushy, snowy, freezing weather over to the National Gallery to see art while my BF skated. Aren't you glad to be away from this winter? :)
