My Wonderful World Tuesday: 4-21

She was well worth the wait, for when she arrived she was a delight. She brought with her cooling breezes to shelter us from the sun, which had all the warmth of summer. A day like this called for a celebration; a walk on the boardwalk, a seat on the bench with a view of the ocean, an ice cream cone, and the first sunburn of the season.

Camera Critters: 4-18

We had lots of critters this week. They came 2 X 2 until there were 6. Murphy and Willow's cousins came for a visit. We actually had 24 feet of dog! After tiring them all with a 4 mile walk, much running, and playing it was time for a photo shoot. They are the poster "children" for rescued dogs. All, with the exclusion of Willow, were adopted from local shelters.

SkyWatch Friday: 4-17

The storm clouds pass leaving us with a breathtaking sunset.

Just because:

I am not usually much of a whiner, but besides having to pay my taxes (state, federal and property), it is a cold, windy, rainy, miserable “Spring” day here in the Northeast. In the hopes of a little mood change, I called my sister. As they say, to add salt to the wound, she is heading into New York City (one of my favorite places to visit) to a flower show. I am unable to go since I have to work later this evening. All of this is leaving me in the need of a little (big) pick me up. To no avail, I already ate some (ok lots) of the Easter chocolate. Today even that didn’t seem to help. So, in yet another attempt to lift my spirits I post:

My World Tuesday: 4-14

With the arrival of Spring's warmer weather, "our" boardwalk and beaches will soon be crowded with "bennies".
*after several comments perhaps I should define "Bennies" ~ for many years, out of towners only carried $100 bills, with face of Benjamin Franklin. Since none of the locals had change for this large bill, these out of towners became known as Bennies.
