a beautiful full moon our first evening at the beach
first of many sunrises
another beautiful moon rise
"I look up at your macro-skies, dark and enormous,
your handmade sky-jewelry,
Moon and stars mounted in their settings..."
Psalm 8: 3 (msg)
i was up for all the sunrises, just could not miss them
i forgot how much i liked the ocean
God painting the morning sky
the little beach cottage where we stayed
view from our porch

I want to hear all about your get together with Martha and Lori...I know you gals had a great time....
Welcome home sweet friend,
Nanie
It looks like a nice relaxing trip. What beach did you go to?
What a vacation spot! It looks like you caught all the 'golden moments' that photographers love, sunrise and sunsets, the lighting is spectacular. That shot of Meg is perfection. Oh how fun to hang with some blogging friends in the real world, sounds like you had a great vacation
Mary, how beautiful the moon and your sun rises are! Thank you for sharing. I love the beach. I saw the sun rise on the water one morning a few years ago for the first time. It was on my bucket list. We live about an hour and a half from the west coast, so we see the sun set in the Pacific, and I never tire of it.
Oh Mar, what fun we had! Like I said, I feel like I have know you forever. We loved seeing and drooling over your fabulous scheduling journal (I will just have to do that too!) and talking so fast just to get it all in. I SO hope we can do that again next time you come to Fernandina. We will have an art day in the studio. ♥♥
Mary, your photos are gorgeous!! And it's great you were able to meet your blogging pals. Welcome back!
Gorgeous photos and the perfect journaling. Thanks for sharing your gift!

How fun! Lori and Martha? sounds like trouble to me!! Haha. Your sunrises and sunsets are so gorgeous, Mary. Glad you could get away. Aren't beach vacations just the perfect thing for relaxation and peace?

I think thats so nice that you got to meet up with a couple of blogging friends. Those pictures are just breathtaking! I think I would have had to get up to see those sunrise. Glad you had fun!
