Ahhhhhhhhhh, Summertime Pleasures. . .
While I don't really enjoy fishing, I do enjoy going barefoot and wading in the water. I am glad I live near the Columbia River because it is two hours to the ocean which I wish I could visit daily but never learned to drive. One day, I will find a way there again . . . in the meantime, I can dream when I see scenes like this.

About Me

- WELCOME to my blog. I hope you will return often.
I am on my third digital camera, all Olympus. I enjoy using it and sharing my photos. I also enjoy writing. I hope to share a little of each on this blog. My main blog is Postcards From the Northwest.
Kerri and I will continue to add benches to "For the Love of Benches Continued . . . " blog also. It is good to continue to share with her!
Continuation of the Kiggins House Re-model photos were lost when my computer crashed.
The latest city project, TURTLE PLACE, will unfold here as I have time to add photos. It is complete and maybe I can find enough photos someday to show you the final results. Next project after the two I am working on now. . .
Blogs I enjoy

Huumm, walking barefoot in the fresh water..I share this kind of simple pleasure!
You can also dream about french Provence, with the lavander near the little boy!..
I went out to the garden barefoot just a little while ago in a light rainfall. I love the feel of the grass on my feet. I like to wade in a clear tumbling spring. I once did that in the Rio Grande. Just the edge. The water was so cold and clear.
I wonder. Could you not maybe take a bus to the Ocean for the day? If it is only 2 hours away.

Pick him up and go to the sea - there is nothing like salt water!
Oh yes! I am saving my money for such a trip. I want to take the bus and stay overnight in a hotel and get up early in the morning and collect sand dolkars off the beach.
They moved the bus station to Oregon and I have to locate it -- used to be downtown here. I have taken the two hour bus ride before. But first, I have to save my pennies for camping with Kathy, fixing crashed computer or buying a new one and buying a new camera. Then I can think of saving for it so it might be next year before I can . . . sigh
Me again - I hope you make it!
Thank you for the nice comment. It is a panorama of five overlapping (wide angled) photos taken near the top of one of our own mountains. I live on the other side of a fjord behind the third mountain. You can barely see the bridge that is in my header from the other side if you look at the enlarged version.
Fishing is fun--when nothing bites and you can relax and enjoy the day.
I didn't realize that you never learned to drive Paulie.
The statue is very cute. I love the water too. It's been a couple of years since we've been to the beach and I'm starting to get the itch again. We have a pool in our backyard, so that takes care of my need to get in the water for the most part. I just miss the expanse of the ocean.
