A trip to the beach

This beach holds a lot of special memories for me..........I love how the ice plant clings to the sandy cliffs. It is the perfect wind block, and cozy spot to put your blanket down and take a nap in the sunshine. Just breathe in the salty air, and feel refreshed and rejuvenated. I always have loved the ocean. I used to dream of living right on the coast.......

Montara Beach

.....my old sunbathing pad..........boogie boarding beach............picnic-ing beach .......my place to escape and unwind. It's the first place my husband and I went on a date to! Special memories and secrets!

THE beach!

Now we love to come back here and bring our girls.......we all share in the special memories of our special time at the coast.

Flying along Highway 92

Driving back home, up the highway, this is what is along side of the road......fields of rich, sandy soil.......filled with rows upon rows of flowers....and then a field of strawberries...........artichokes, etc....in the Fall, the pumpkins patches are a big feature......

Marriage of Pop Garden & Sis Boom!

..........Nature does inspire us to create.......rows of flowers....rows of flowery fabric!

Punchy Pillows

Some pillows for a friend's wedding gift. Oh la la............very dreamy.........I will miss these beauties. I'm enjoying them before wrapping them up and sending them off to their new home.
