beach review 2012

 little wanderer,
cruising the sand,
playing in the "bubbles"
snuggling for warmth
 
 Twin Rocks
 
 watching the sunset from our deck
 
 playing in the surf
 
 my Evelyn angel
 
 riding on the boogie boards
pulled by dad

 girls, girls, girls
riding the waves on boogie boards
(they were awesome)
playing school, singing call me, maybe
doing hair
and giggles
 
Sam on the move, always
 
boys, boys, boys
digging in the sand,
making forts,
playing football,
running in the waves
 
 on the way home we drove the
Scenic Columbia Gorge route
we hiked to waterfalls,
viewed from Crowne Point
and drove the winding roads home
 
 the Mighty Columbia

Ahhh, the wonder of a photo!  These pictures today were a gift.  As we have been adjusting to our fall routine, we have felt a little frazzled and stretched a bit thin.  We will settle in, and feel more comfortable in a few weeks I'm sure...But today, the beach, and vacation memories were especially  beautiful.

This makes me miss the North West so much[sigh]. I will pour a syrupy sweet attitude all over this pancake flat place I live in. The Midwest rocks!(I haven't convinced myself fully yet of this, but I'll keep trying!)
