I didn’t get out for a dedicated photo hike this week, but I did get a chance to spend some time at the beach, writing and reading. I planned to take some pictures, but it was just so beautiful, all I could do was soak in the sun and ocean breezes.

It’s been a very long time since I have visited the beach. Your photographs make me think of a winter trip to the beach.

What a beautiful spot to sit and relax and soak up the sun. We’ve traveled North but we’ll be back in the sunshine state soon. The wind here is cold! lol Enjoy your day.
