Two if by Sea...

On Saturday, R and the boy went out on the sea fishing. They do this quite often, but this time they actually took the camera and brought back some lovely photos for me to post. The day was magnificent here in southern California. They did catch four smallish fish, but put them back into the sea. They had a grand time and came back exhausted...

This stretch of beach seems to go on forever. It's before 7 a.m. and all is quiet...

One little sandpiper...

Sunbathing sea lions...could they be any cuter?

The pelicans were out in force, apparently...looking for tasty morsels, no doubt....

I love this last shot. So peaceful and the water looks glorious...

Thank you for visiting, dear friends...xo

Cloudy Day Beach Walk...

Here on southern California's coast, we really do experience June Gloom. Most mornings start off damp and grey, many afternoons are sunny and clear, followed by clouds rolling in around 5pm. It's quite predictable. This never stops us from our beach activities. I still do the early morning beach walks. In the summer, my son usually accompanies me. On this particular day, the waves were quite good. Notice the middle surfer is a girl. Yay for girls! If you look closely at the last photo you will see my son is holding a sand crab. I hope you enjoy the photos I took on this cloudy day beach walk...

By The Sea...

I actually remembered my camera on Tuesday for my beach walk. I managed to capture some of the sights along the way....

An anonymous love letter in the sand, there's always at least one.
My amateur attempt to track a large grouping of magnificent pelicans(which to my amazement is known as a pod of pelicans)...

I hope you enjoy looking at these photos. I'll try to remember my camera more often so that I can share with you some of the breathtaking and also sometimes peculiar sights I encounter.
