Cannon Beach Trip

Recently, hubby and I spent a few days at the beach on the Oregon coast.  We had the most awesome restful time taking loads of pictures and just relaxing.  One day we just leaned up against a big log for some recreational reading to the sound of the surf and the seagulls.

We sat on the beach and took in the sights and sounds on a crisp sunshiny day in January--an odd thing for January!  I thought you might like to enjoy the trip with us.  These are just a few pictures, as we took dozens and dozens of pictures!

I'll leave you with the flavor and feel of our stroll down the beach . . . .

 . . . oops, sorry,  use your imagination as to the "flavor" and "feel" part!

Under the Sea Challenge

Hi again!  I have been offline since before Father's Day!  Time, now, to get back to the blogesphere!  And just by the skin of nmy teeth for the June challenge of the Blogging Business Artisans Team challenge!  I had the project done at the first of the month, but has no internet!  So here is my project for the Under the Sea Challenge!

I had some lightly fuzzy fabric that someone gave to me and I didn't know what to do with it, so when this challenge came up, I thought it reminded me of the sea.  I made a simple zipper pouch and change purse.  I decorated it with stitching to look like a wave.  It was a fairly simple project, but I think is dressed up the plain fabric!

I think I missed the link party, but I got my challenge up inJune anyway! You can go to our team blog and see how others in the group responded to the challenge:
