I had to chance to go to the beach today. It was really hot, but a beautiful day. I live only about an hour from the Atlantic Ocean and don't go nearly as often as I could. I really enjoyed my outing and wanted to share a pic with you.

Thanks. It's always good to get out. I seldom have time to be by myself so I do enjoy it when I can.

Oh, that pic looks SO nice! I could really use a day at the beach, but we live too far away. We could get to Lake Erie in an hour, but it's just not the same as the ocean. You are very lucky to be so close to the best thing on earth!

I know I am very blessed to live so close. The fact that I don't very often is a crime, because I do enjoy it when I do. Thanks for your reply.

Oh that is so pretty! I almost wish I were there. Just take away a long, sweaty plane trip, or an insufferable car ride, and I'm there, girl!

It was really hot here too, in the high 80's. The water was nice. I only waded, though. You don't have AC? Ouch!

Nope no AC...just fans to circulate the hot air...I keep adding a lot of ice cubes into the water for the cats...they get more than I do!!

Hey, I thought everyone who lives in Florida would go to the beach everyday! Hahaha! xD Well, just kidding, but the idea we get on telvision shows is that it's always hot in there and everyone wear those colorful summer clothes. :) I live in Brazil, one block away from the beach. And, well, I almost never go there. If I go once a month it's too much. Well, glad to see you enjoyed it! Cheers, my friend!

That's the tourists you see at the beach in the tv shows! Like you, I live close to the beach, but hardly ever go. I wonder why that is? We do wear colorful clothes. In northern Florida it gets cold in the winter. By cold, I mean down to freezing a few times.

We all at some time, need to just "get away" from life in a sense. It's comforting at times to be by yourself. It's great to be on the beach listening to the calm and soothing sounds of water crashing against the shore. So when you you do you shell hunt? Do you hunt for driftwood at all? Amazing some of the things you can find when strolling along the beaches. Have a great day/evening. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

We don't have any good shell or driftwood beaches near here. The best driftwood I found was up on the north end of Jekyl Island in southern Ga. The best shells are at Sanibel Island on the gulf side of south Florida. I love the beach, but hardly ever get over there for some reason!
