LIFES A BEACH!

We were in Magdalena Bay one year as the momma grey's brought the babies into the bay to eat and learn to swim properly. Seriously. The babies rode on mommy's back so they learned to go up and down in the water. Truly life altering to watch...sigh
Faith, I WARNED you about the sun...didn't I??????? Where are the pix of the plein air artists? One year you posted the work in progress so neat to see!!!

Joni - loved the beach picture and the writing. Glad you had a good time and the weather cooperated. And how cool to see the whales. I keep wanting for DH to take me on an Alaskan cruise to see the whales. Maybe one of these years.
Hope everyone is staying cool and out of this unbearable heat. Five minutes outside and you are wringing wet with sweat! And that is without doing anything except standing in the shade!!!! It is not supposed to be this hot in NC.

BARBE!!! The festival tonight (Plein Air) was sooooooooo awesome. All 40 artists at our marina for the sunset. Band playing. We (the 3 yoga-gals) bought patron tickets so we got to hob-nob in the big tent with the goodies and a never ending wine bar.
I took a couple hundred photos, lots fewer than in the past, cuz my yoga buds kept distracting me from my documenting how cool it all is at it unfolds over the two hour paint-off.
It is truly one of the neatest things that happens. Tomorrow night they're in a little village to our south. Hmmmmmmmm. Just realized tomorrow night is the guys fishing, but they're going north.
Maybe I can find a ride?
It will be glorious. Do you think I could learn to drive a motorcycle overnight? LOL
toooooooo much wine, better edit, spelling disolves w a glass of wine............

That is WAY cool Lisa!! Like a Mexican stand-off. Or an urban/rural skyline. When I frame my pieces I always name them. Sometimes it's the name that makes the picture special.
Faith are you going to post pics of the artists???

Lisa love the photo all it needs is music and the birds can start their march.
Tinyfishy probably will not like me posting this but I always call this his bird pose.

Guess I will have to start remembering I have a camera in my purse, but I know mine will never match up to yours and Mum and Tinyfishy. And I do miss Melissa's pictures here.

I like to go to the see the giraffes first thing before anyone gets there.
They are soooooo curious and love to come over and take
a look at me...

giraffes are my favs! I collected giraffe figurines for years, but ended up finding other people who collected them way more seriously than I did & passed most of them on. I've saved a few. I LOVE their purple tongues! When I was in 2nd grade, I lived in a small town about 30 miles from Portland Or. Our teacher arranged a field trip to the Portland Zoo on the day that Packy, the 1st baby elephant born in captivity in a US zoo (I think that was his claim to fame), was being revealed. At that time zoos weren't so environmentally correct & the giraffes were in this BIG cement enclosure that had viewing areas level with the animals heads. I was standing there watching & this giraffe came over by me & unfurled it's tongue---I was astounded! Loved them ever since.

Lisa, I was telling someone that it was probably the most relaxing vacation we've had in a long while. Usually, we are worn out when we get home from vacation
This time we rented a house right on the water. We had no phones or puters:) Cooked most of our meals there (easy meals)lolol....but we did a while lot of sitting and staring at the waves and listening to them roll. Now it was very hot, but we managed to stay cool as much as possible!Of course, the gulf coast ain't NUTHIN like the California coast!!!! N.O.T.H.I.N.G.!!!! lol
Have a great night Lisa!
