Favorite Spot


I chose this picture to put by my profile and my comments. We took this picture two summers ago when we took our RV on it's maiden voyage. It was the "let's see how big a mistake we might have made" trip. Turns out, we had a great time, learned a lot about the RV lifestyle and that we should NEVER, NEVER try to drive it through LA ever again! Anyway, we had a RV spot reserved at my favorite spot in the whole world, at least that I have visited in my 60 years, Morro Bay, California. This was taken on the beach at sunset.........and is one of a series of the sun going down. When I need cheering up, it is either this picture or the sunflower that I hunt for.

Here is Morro Rock. At least that is it's official name. In our house, it is Norma's Rock. I was born in the mountains of Colorado, two miles ABOVE sea level. It is a beautiful place, awe inspiring but I really have always felt God put me down in the wrong place. I was meant to be able to walk in the sand not the snow. The great white hunter knows that he needs to get me to the ocean every so often so I can suck up the water's energy. I need that feeling of strength that I feel on Morro Bay beach.




Time to plan our next vacation and I think we are going to Oklahoma to see the great white hunter's mother and family...........and that is the wrong direction! Think we need to discuss this, I NEED that beach and there sure aren't any in Oklahoma!

Everyone needs a place to renew their bodies. It is wonderful you have found yours.

Ah, Oklahoma won't be bad though...if you get my drift.

I see your header is small...what did you do?

From my point of view I liked the full picture better.

It our favorite thing to do in CA, take weekend drives along the coast. That seriously is THE ONLY thing I miss about living in CA.

I'm loving the desert.

Did you get to the Cotton Boll in Morro Bay? We go to Cambria just up the road every fall...and I usually sneak over for a quick trip to that shop. I think they have less quilting stuff since they moved. You fixed the header! WTG! Together we can WHIP this blog stuff! I'm back online after a crash scare..turns out it was just a faulty mouse! WHEW!
