Ten on Ten: July 2011

I'm still alive. Couldn't let Ten on Ten pass me by. Hoping it will be the kick start I need to restart my blogging motor.
 
Ten on Ten. Ten pictures over ten hours on the tenth of the month. I have to admit. I cheated a wee little bit. The last few pictures were taken during the same hour. I couldn't resist. They were so much more exciting.

Does it seem like Ten on Ten often falls on a Sunday? Maybe I'm crazy. But I'm remembering a bunch of lazy, dazy Sunday Ten on Tens.

In any event, it was a great day. Beautiful weather. BSD finally home. Morning walk with a friend. Projects rebooted. Garden booming. Meals dictated by the day's harvest. All topped with an evening stroll on the beach. We live a charmed life. Indeed.

 (No. I didn't start the morning off with a margarita. Just a reminder of a fun evening with friends from the night before.)

Wowza these shots are great! I loved the first one and all the shots at the beach. What's not to like about the beach? :)

Kyria @ Travel Spot said...

Is that your craft area. That is great! I want one! Also, if you made that sandcastle, you are WAY more talented than I am. Usually mine is a few lumps of sand stuck together in a mound.

Excellent!!!

I'm so glad your man is back. And that you got a super-duper Sunday (and Saturday night) to enjoy.

Did you make that sand castle? Impressive.

Excellent photos. It looks like a fantastic day, and the sand castle is beautiful.

I always love your 10 on 10 posts! Your photos are so fun and it really gives me another glimpse into who you are and what your life is all about. I know you're feeling uninspired lately, but I have to tell you that I love every one of these pics and they totally inspire me. You are so creative and have such a great perspective on the things around you! So don't give up because you ROCK! I especially love your craft center and the sandcastle shot (I need to take sandcastle building lessons from you!) And my fav or all is the of you and BSD together; your smile is infectious and you can just feel the love between the two of you! I'm so glad he's home...yeah! Keep on keeping on and can't wait to see your next post.

hey stranger - i've missed soooo much during my 4-week break from blogland - guess I need some BWM myself ;-) of course, i see now that 10 on 10 would have made the perfect launching point, but oh well ... i'm glad you did it, yours are always spectacular and this month was no exception - love it!!
