Other birds, creatures that I don't see enough.

On a recent trip to Florida, to sail with my Dad, I was able to spend some time with one of my favorite creatures.  Pelicans.  They amuse, they amaze me.  Someday I too will fly effortlessly just above the waves - out to sea.  Nothing will stop me.

Seven mile bridge.  We crossed this bridge everyday on our way to "sailing school", in Marathon.  We sailed under the bridge twice - it was an adventure!

I find the horizon of blue-green water to be soothing and reassuring.

At sail.  At last.

(and alas, no more)

Because I am so fond of ocean waters I have a charm necklace to keep what I hold dear close to my heart.  

This one might bring you joy.

Back to the beach

I have no firm plans to travel as of yet but if I did..... oh I long to dive beneath the surface of the bright blue waters of the ocean and spend some quality time with my fish friends.

I have been meaning to list this necklace in my Etsy shop for some time, I guess that I didn't really want to part with it.  This is my favorite style of necklace, long and linked and fabulous.  Classic colors in a classic length, I always layer a necklace like this with a pendant necklace and my gold chains.  It gives my hands something to touch while I gaze at the horizon.  Hopefully your horizon will have some palm trees and an umbrella.

Vacation time is here.  We all need to get away - I so hope that I will have to chance to sit on a beach in the sun.  These earrings will look so good with your swimsuit and floppy hat.
