Pedicures at the Beach Salon

Did you hear? there is a new pedicure salon down at the beach.

Come along we have to hurry it is a very popular place, the lines are forming!

First shed your shoes....hmmmm....boots.

Grab a seat, and drop those toes into a bowl of exfoliating bliss.

Finger tip massage, ahh, that feels so GOOD! Work your magic.

Today there is a pedicure special featuring mud packs, cost: only a few shells, oops, I mean shillings. 

Isn't this divine?  I could stay here all day. I wonder when the stars will come out.  Massage at Midnight....dream on. 

The Seahorse waving a red flag just warned me that there is a long line of hermit crabs waiting impatiently for their turns. 

Gosh I wish those uppity crabs would just crawl back into their holes, 

now I have to swish off my invigorating mud pack!!!! 

Making bubbles at the last minute with their secret ingredient, Sea Flake Suds, the final swish for super soft feet. 

Sparkling waves, blushing pink toes, petal smooth skin.

I wanted to have my toenails painted a soft lavender,

but I was told they are experiencing a challenge working on 
Olivia Octopus, who was ahead of me.

I knew I should have run faster!!

Garden Sculptures

What an amazing, exhilarating, fun-loving three weeks we have had with our adult kids and 11 grand-kiddies.

Sun Up--Sun  Down we amazed ourselves with all

that there is to do, learn and explore whether paired off or in one huge moving mass of energy.

It has been fun to review the photos we have all taken with our various cameras.  

I decided to choose something calm....a beautiful, inviting botanical garden in Asheville, NC. 

I was impressed with the workmanship and uniqueness of the sculptures created from many substrates.

Sculpture enhances a garden when well placed and chosen.

It is a bit like the perfect pair of shoes or handbag to go with your best outfit.  It simply adds to the entire over all appearance and environment. 

These are my three favorite sculptures, for their placement and uniqueness. They enhance the visual experience.

I was very happy with my  SOOC camera shots but decided to add a delicate texture to each.

Kim is offering a free Lightroom course demonstrating the use of the Library for organizing photos. 

You need only to sign up.  I did. It was great!  Thank you Kim for your generosity.
