so i learned a valuable lesson last week, when after several months of communication with a blogger i loved, i found out the hard way that you just can't predict how people will react. when someone has a blog that has picture after picture and post after post about the beach, their flickr pages littered with wonderful trips to the beach... you would think if you inquired where the beach they loved might be that they would just tell you... well you would be wrong. instead you would get a response about how what makes a beach attractive is unique to an individual (?????) and that this very special beach is their very special secret so you better "google" up a beach for yourself. ok, i live on the west coast, this person lives on the east coast. i am not hopping on a plane anytime soon and taking over their special beach... so i decided to go to a beach near me today and just relax a little.
wouldn't you know there are colored rocks here on the west coast too? amazing! emily loved the beach glass
the girls had fun making a color wheel with their rocks and since there is a "no collecting" rule here, we left our design for the tides to take back out
lots of people made nice comments about our rock collection and design, it was a fun winter day here after the rain, laguna canyon was green, skies were blue and the air surprisingly warm
and one more shot of a super cool pad with a super cool view
if anyone is curious, i was at LAGUNA BEACH today, probably the most gorgeous beach in southern california and public, so please enjoy.
we will have to meet up there someday! (looks like you had a perfect day.) xo
ReplyDeleteThe girls stone gathering is truely Goldsworthy-worthy! You crack me up. I have a gut feeling about who you may be referring, but I shall keep that to myself, in case too many people populate it and ruin the atmosphere.
ReplyDelete;oP
Is the beach you're trying to figure out on in N.C.?? By chance???
ReplyDeletethis looks like a perfect day! it is snowing here. i love what the girls did with the rocks they collected. it looks beautiful. i love finding other peoples art or sculpture on the beach.
ReplyDeleteI love your daughters's land art ! truly beautiful !!!
ReplyDeleteI experienced something similar as you did : as I enjoy photography, I asked one of my long time blogfriends what camera & lens she had (because she takes beautiful photos) well, she skipped the question twice and I never got to know... what's the point ??! I guess some people just like secrets or maybe it makes their dull life more exciting ?
Anyway if you cross the Atlantic to Western France I'll take you to our nicest beaches, I promise ;)
xoxo
The second picture is wonderful. I can see you made the most of your time there. There is truth to what the blogger said. Though, if there is such a place, it would also be good to share it with others. Maybe that blogger just doesn't want too many people to know about it, because sometimes that could lead to destruction.
