    Julz. My goodness. I had no idea.

    Now you have rung my curiosity bell.

    LOL.

    The things you know.

    What a hoot.

    I'm pretty amazed that I can even post a picture.

    LOL.

    We're heading toward a real beach this weekend!!!

    Seriously.

    Headed up to VA, but we're going to go to DD2's in-laws who live on Pawley's Island. We'll have one day at the beach on Thurs..... so keep your fingers crossed for some sunshine. If so, I'll be sure to have my camera charged up & ready to go!!!!

    (It's near Myrtle Beach)

    Sharon. I didn't even see you making that video of me with my blue guitar.

    You sure are a clever one!!

    Linda, it's great to see ya pop in and I'm glad that Meece left a bit of cake for you to savor.

    I'm gearing up to return to my real life, already in progress.

    Ready or not, the time is at hand.

    This weekend is VA, 3 different presentations, an hour & 45 minutes each. What was I thinking??? Will pace myself and have given myself permission, that if I've run out of steam by the third one, I'll just hang a sign up to cancel it and apologize.

    xx00xx00xx00xx

    Take care of each other, as I attempt to get back on the horse again.

    spish splashing by to say hi to all and Faith have a great time at the real beach.  I hope to get to a reach beach this summer.  I know I will be on Lake Michigan and hope to meet several bc survivors around that area.  Going to go walk the beach now and see if I can find any sea glass or sea shells.  Hugs to all.

    Have a good week everyone

    Faith, Best of luck to you in VA!  You must be thrilled to get back in the saddle!  Congrats, I know you will do well. 

    I love collecting sea glass too and get such a thrill when I find a cobalt blue piece!

    Here I am.

    Poised at the opportunity to post at BCO for the 8000th time!!

    Wow.

    A lot happens around here in 8000 posts.

    Let me just pause long enough to thank each & every beach poster for your contributions here. I am so indebted to our beach.

    The friendships, the views, the camraderie, the support, the encouragement, the vistas, the talents, the laughter, the nonsense, the events, the milestones, the silliness, the beauty, the continuity, the delight, the joys, the community, the songs, the poems, the happiness, the hand holding, the meeting-up-in-real-life, the togetherness, the helpfullness........ it's all meant the world to me in my walk.

    A word of appreciation to our founder, Angel, for establishing this place and welcoming me into it's heart.

    A word of acknowledgement to our beachie-babes who are now angels-in-heaven, watching over us & showering us with blessings. May your families be comforted.

    A word of gratitude to all who have posted here and thereby enriched our thread with your contributions.

    A word of welcome to any who may read along, or 'surf' the gorgous sights we have seen in real life and visited, as well as those locales we picture from afar -- to consider jumping into the waves with us and introducing yourselves. There are always additional flip-flops in our welcome basket.

    Here's to great beach-filled days ahead for each of us.

    xx00xx00xx00xx

    The biggest of group hugs.

    xx00xx00xx00xx

    Strength and courage.

    Strength and courage.

    Strength and courage.

    What a great 8000th post Faith.  May there be many more years of beach combing.  I miss the scavenger hunts we use to have, those were so much fun and Sahalie could come up with some good hard ones. LOL

    Here are a few pictures from your Pawleys Island

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

    Sweeties of the sweetest.

    Thanks.

    My PT is still sick and so that appt for this afternoon has been cancelled. It allows us the opportunity to leave just as soon as the car is packed.

    We'll be sleeping on an island tonight!!

    At least that's the plan.

    Take care of each other.

    Awwhhhh (((((((((((((Faithie)))))))))))))

     Wishing you safe travels and a positive return back to your real world. It seems like we were just talking about how long it would take, how you would feel when you started back to your travels. Even though you're not feeling 100% right now, I'm sure you'll just get better and better with time. Once you feel the energy of the participants, I'm sure your energy and ROM will just leap to a new start!! Big hugs and prayers for you today.......and always!!!

    Happy Birthday Linda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's so good to see you here. Hope your day was really REALLY special!! You deserve it!!

    Hugs to all you beachies today!!!

    Faith, your bruising is really lasting a long time! Is that mostly because of the infection? I hope it's not due to over-use of your arms or fluid build-up. Sounds painful,.....

    After my last surgery, DH said I looked like I was celebrating Mardi Gras with green purple and yellow covereing my Chest and tummy.  Sorry you are looking mussed-up.  No one would notice if your bruises did show, your smile would attract the attention!!!
