Faces, Kind Of...

It's vacation week and we're having fun.


It's calm and beautiful, with a possible storm tonight, often a beautiful sight to behold


...

The beach has been as fun as ever



We have been sitting on the patio looking at shadows


as well as watching light bounce off the walls


we have been doing nothing

very expertly


and one of us (not me)is posing for I-Love-My-Bike magazine










Later in the week we will kayak


paddling among the cormorants


and on Commercial Street we will see

interesting faces of all sorts





I know I keep saying it, but

this is a very good place to be this summer.

And I am writing.

Maybe I am even toughening up.

Or is it softening up?

Tsup with love,

kj

  1. What a gorgeous bit of sunshine while it's snowing, yes snowing just an hour's drive from me. It's pouring here and so cold the dog won't even go out of the house. Bring on spring! You look like you're having a wonderful relax and your word veri is "Homies"

  4. WOW! that is just like summer here, except for the water, the surfing dogs, the light and shadows, the painted toenails and the bicycle helmets. Hope you are enjoying your vacation!

  5. haha, walking man cracks me up!!

    That helmet is quite the fashion statement ;P

    I feel as though I know every inch of that place. I'm glad you're there. I'm glad Liz is there. And I'm glad you're writing.

    No comment on small pet owners who dress their dogs.

  9. robin, those little dogs are dudes, aren't they? they were on the water for more than an hour, happy for sure. i think JB looks so funny and content. xo

  10. wishing you ease in your writing and a dose of toughness thrown in for good measure. writers must be tough regarding the truth.

    and bask in these dreamy surroundings. vacation life has a life of its own....endless days, a good pour of wine in your glass, and that mesmerizing bank of clouds in your header foto.

    enjoy to the max kj. seems you are.

    xo
