Sunshine, Seashells and Sand

The title about sums it up!  Chris and I are enjoying some time away and have had a great time already and it is really only Day 2 so what is to come?? More wonderfulness!!!   You know I am just not a big snow fan.  I like the first couple of snows when it is nice and new and white and clean but about now in the midwest the snow becomes more of a pain than anything—-dirty, gritty piles all over the place obliterate your driving views and just cause general mayhem in a lot of ways.  So a little escape to sunny Texas was in order so here we are!   A little mini vacation combined with some work and some visiting of the oldest son and life is suddenly wonderful once again!   Amazing how a change of view can affect me mentally!!!

We have had plenty of beach walking and sitting time and it looks like today will be even nicer so we might drive on down the beach today!  In Texas the beaches are all public property so if there is a beach–you can be on it.  They are also part of the public highway system so all the laws of the road apply—for example seat belt use is required as you tool down the beach in your car!  I am excited to just be able to feel the sand between my toes again!  It has been a long winter.

For your viewing pleasure I will post a few pics here—I put a bunch on Facebook so if you saw those these will most likely be duplicates but enjoy them anyway!!!  Here’s to sunny Sundays!
