the last supper

we spent our last night gathered around the fire sharing stories
and roasting marshmellows.

treasures

wandering the beach reminds me just how much i love to explore, how much i love to watch those little sandpipers run in and out of the waves searching for food, how much i love to see the tide scatter little treasures all along its sandy shores and how much i hold dear all the gifts the ocean brings me.

more

morning, afternoon and night:
starbucks lattes, wandering third street promenade, olive mary janes, walking on the beach, olas mexican, driving pch 1, bel aire hotel, drinking bloody marys, lemon and orange trees, embracing my new friends trudy and mary, pepperdine, listening to dale play the piano, trader joes, savoring homemade lemon meringue pie, literati cafe, standing still in the memory garden, dolphins, touring with marge, laughter, sampling delicious k-chocolatiers, black beans and pico, drawing and painting...and much, much more.

broad beach road

i am a lucky girl. truly a once in a lifetime backyard to play in
and bed to dream in. sweet, sweet dreams.

"always changing, never twice the same"

an unbelievable feast of art, modern architecture, beautiful gardens and a delicious lunch at the cafe.

coming

good morning. i just finished packing for my trip. i wish i could take you with me. i'm off to find a bright blue sky and a beautiful friend who i just adore. i can't believe the day is finally here and that this afternoon i will be listening to the sounds of the ocean, enjoying the sand on my bare feet and laughing with sweet millie. it should be a joyous time.
