Outdoor Wednesday / Dressed in Pink

I couldn't resist taking a photo of this carefree little girl as she walked with her family on the pier last week at Seal Beach, California.
I think she likes pink!
She was just cruising along so happy to be in her own world.

Watery Wednesday / Carlsbad, California

 
  
Not everyone watched the Super Bowl this past Sunday.
Some of us were at the beach.
And, what a wonderful day it was for being by the water flying a kite...or, just walking and taking pictures.

ABC Wednesday / "D"

 
  
These kinds of scenes disturb me in a very big way.
I watched this for quite some time from the pier.
This little guy was playing in a very dangerous ocean without a close eye on him.
Thankfully, a disastrous situation didn't happen...this time.

These shorts were in a store window.  
The reflections of the sky and trees were the bonus!

That's My World Tuesday / Sea Foam

 
My husband and I went for a long walk, yesterday, along Carlsbad Beach in southern California.  
It was a beautiful day with big puffy clouds in the sky and perfect for beach walking.
We were quite surprised that the beach was dotted heavily with sea foam.
It was actually quite pretty but curiosity struck us as to the cause.
I had to wait until I got home to look it up on the internet and found the reasons to be varied.
I also found out that some beaches in other parts of the world have had a whole lot more than we had today  in Carlsbad!
This is a link about "sea foam" and quite interesting...the photos on this link are amazing!
The following pictures are what we enjoyed during our walk.

Monochrome Weekend / Sculpture

 
Southwest Art Festival
Indio, California

Blue Monday, Mellow Yellow Monday, Ruby Tuesday, Midweek Blues / Playday at the Beach


 
I took my little grandson to Seal Beach last week.  
He really liked playing in the small sandy playground.
I love it when he gets "really" dirty!  
He has sand all over his face...
Some people were eating nearby, which was the same as throwing the welcome mat out for the pigeons and sea gulls to arrive right on schedule!
Little Chase was delighted!
I noticed the hand crafted tiles that lined the short wall of this playground,
which were obviously created by children of various ages...
and, a few adults.

  
  
and, I did just that...It was a beautiful sunny February day at the beach!

  
and, this was just too cute to pass up!
The dates indicate these tiles have been hanging in there for a few years.

Scenic Sunday / Caymen Islands, July 2009

These are my nieces in the Caymen Islands last summer.  
I just have to share this beautiful scene of pinks, yellows, and blues!
I wasn't there (unfortunately) so, I didn't take the photo.
The pink kayak and Janelle's pink drink...
I can't believe how color coordinated this all is!

Camera Critters / Maybe She Will Share?

 
These seagulls are hoping for a free morsel of fish!
