I could totally be a beach bum. A title that has almost nothing to do with the post.

The Internet is painfully slow.

So we'll see how much posting will happen.

The beach is simply stunning.

It always is.

I had plans to sleep until 9:00 every morning.

but. little sisters have a way of. well. shall we say making your priorities not

so much priorities?

Katya {the youngest} decided that it was direly necessary for me to get up

and go on a walk.

and so I did.

and of course took the camera along.

It would be greatly offended if it was left in my room.

okay. so maybe it's just a bunch of plastic and metal.

but whatevs'.

the humidity is at about 95%.

my frizz tells that story.

that, and how hazy this photo is.

Broken shells?

treasures.

This was the calmest the water has been all day.

This afternoon has been just plain intense.

The wind was flowing {does wind flow?} at about 40 or so mph.

Which caused the waves to grow into monstrous tidal waves.

okay. maybe not.

But saying that I was battling tidal waves sounds better than plain old 8 - 12 ft. waves.

not much to say here. execpt...

sunspots.

epic clouds.

too early to be awake.
