I'm going over the hill soon!

I have one day left to be forty something.  Then, on Friday I will go over the hill and welcome being 50 years old.  Doesn't seem right.  I don't feel fifty but on the same hand I feel much more in line with who I really am.  I am happy, satisfied with the person I am, content with life.  That is enough for me.

I've been missing blogging it just seems it has been non stop all summer and spring.  The weather here in Florida is beautiful.  It has been really dry but, we have been blessed with a few rainy days recently.  Of course we have been enjoying the beach and all she offers.  We've been picking blueberries and eating them everyday.   Dinner usually comes off the grill and the watermelon is sweet and peaches South!

I think I'll choose to accept turning 50 with open arms..I might as well right?  It's gonna be great!  Fifty is just a number...I keep my heart and mind open.  I look for... what I hope to find, and hope you do too!  Life is so much better that way.

Enough said

I still feel small when I stand beside the ocean.



I hope you are all well.  Enjoy your summer, and remember to be kind to one another.   Hug someone just because you can. 

It's free.

On Sunday I drove to Navarre Beach for the Sand Sculpting Festival/Competition.  Navarre Beach is about 30 minutes from our home.  While many of you are enjoying the changing of leaves, and cool breezes...here in Florida this is what our Fall looks like.  Here are a few photos from the day I wanted to share with you all.
