    I complained that I could not get to Jacqueline and she is so very ill.  And someone responded with a ride!  Wow.  It is fantastic! 

    I am valuing new friendships with Spar 2 and others from this sight.  There are some friendships already established like FaithandFifty,SoCalLisa etc.

    It makes me smile to see the pictures.

    I have found the beach and the buddies.  Now to enjoy the sun!

    Hi Spar:

    I use ribbons in scrapbooking and on greeting cards.  Are those yours?  You might be able to weave them into something.  There's probably info on the web about ribbon crafts.

    here is some special lighthouse candy for wings

    No the ribbons were just a picture, i do have some ribbon but not near that much.  Do you make homemade greeting cards?  I need to do some scrapbooking that is something I have not attempted yet but I have a whole cedar lined brass box that is loaded with stuff i could use.

    Spar, I'm here.  I am not real crafty.  I come from a long line of artists.  I do love doing pencil sketches of cats.  I am also pretty good at landscapes.  And I have sent crocheted squares to the girls for the afghan project.

    My Great, great, great, great Grandfather was a fairly famous New England landscape artist.  His name was Charles Frederick Kimball.  His paintings are on exhibit in the Portland, Maine Museum of Art.  I have several of his original sketches here.  My grandmother left them to me, because she knew I would never sell them.  Unlike other un-named family members, lol!

    So, I am kind of artsy fartsy, by birth!  I do enjoy great art.  There!  That's me.  A biker and a lover of beauty.

     Hello to everyone else.  It's been a rainy day on my side of the beach.  I had lots of errands to run, and now I'm pooped!

    Spar you are The Pic Girl today. Bring all kinds of fun to the Beach today. From ever changing Flip flops, Funny cards received, Wonderful Light houses, even the Sweet Kind, & Scenic places to lay in the sand! All this wrapped up in pretty ribbon. Thanks for keeping things going today & enticing some friends to come play!

    Dreamwriter I'm glad the powers that be could take you to see your Friend!  We SO Hear that Smile shining down on us at the Beach!  I'm sure your friend loved seeing it too. These girls are a terrific bunch!

    Celia I'm glad you came to play &  bring your 'Special' finds. Who would of thought smoozing on the beach with the 'Simpsons'. Even if it was a little sandy! Always finding fun things for us, Thank You! Do you know why they call it a 'Paper Nautilus' shell?

    Shrink how are things coming together? But most of all how are you feeling? Praying for you swelling to go down!

    Mary Lou it's good to see you walking on our Beach again! Such Beauty in your shells that you have found!

    Waving Hi to all my Beachy's Faith, Sahalie, Jazz, Foots, Wings, Biker Jan, Heymoose, Saint, Lisa & All that I have missed!
