The first thing God did...

"In the beginning God created..."

the first words God shares with us are these! 

I used to teach my art class that we were the first class mentioned.

The kids got a real kick out of that :)

So do I, 

no wonder I am happiest in my studio,

I feel real joy when I am designing something"new"

I am so grateful He created her :D 

but I think I assisted with that project 

And I guess he did too HA HA!

We spent the weekend with her,

He was at a sleepover with 

the buddy he's talking to on the mic

(Can anyone relate?)

We drove up and adventured on the coast and

 took a long walk on the sand

at a beach we had never been to before 

this was halfway down the cliff

Small section of the quite steep path

we walked out to the "rock" in the shore on the right

then back to the parking lot in the trees behind him

It was well worth it!

Don't forget about the giveaway!

Pink from all week

I was surrounded by pinks this week!

They only last a day but what a day it was!

Pale and oh so frilly...

hot and buttery...

fading by end of day...

but truly unforgettable!

See a few more on this daylily post here.

Can u tell me what's different in this picture from the one

posted on Tuesday??? Oh CoCo moo you done good :)

My flowers almost faded from my birthday

...thanks hubby!

This is as much pink as 

Miss Soday Icy Pop will wear!

I had to stop during our walk on the wharf

 and capture the pink over the boardwalk...

Fire Snail and his buddy being boys :)

Long Walks on the beach...

Yesterday was warm and beautiful 

and we needed to get out of the house...

so we jumped in the "fraulein" hubby's car, with no real plan

and headed North on Hwy 1 or the Pacific Coast Hwy

We ended up to Pescadero State Beach

You really get a sense of awe at places like this,

Where the land seems to rise from the sea and there is nothing

 except a little strip of sand separating open ocean 

and cliff edges with rolling hills on top that fade into the mountains...

Fire snail is truly a spec against this cliff...

We went a quarter mile North along the cliffs but the tide was rolling in,

So we decided to walk as far as we could South...

we walked all the way to the cliff edge on the far right of the picture, 

the dark line touching the edge!

Nothing but the Ocean till Hawaii behind her...

There were more than a hundred jellyfish washed up

along the beach on our walk...

tons of drift wood, fire snail found an arrow :)

see the end cliff behind him getting closer?

And soda Icy pop tried to bring this home!

This is the cliff at the end of the long walk

What and amazing view through the hole!

And PCH going over the river that flows to the sea...

And now for the walk back...

I figure this may be the last Summer they want to hang out with us

So we have set a goal of visiting and walking as much as possible safely 

the beaches along the coast between 

Santa Cruz and San Francisco this summer.

We'll see how many we get too thank goodness we have the annual state park pass

which paid for itself in the first month :)

We'll see where we end up today have a great Sunday!
