A too warm Friday led
to a too warm Saturday...
which then called for a just perfect trip to the beach,
A whole lot of other people it seemed had the same idea...
(totally normal when the temps go up in the valley)
but surprisingly we got 'front row' parking at a favorite stop,
(a rare find whenever the sun shines on a summer weekend at the coast)
we didn't encounter any coastal traffic jams
(a rare happening when the temps go up in the valley
and the sun is shining on a summer weekend at the coast)
AND
(and this is a BIG 'and')
we actually spotted at least one motel with a vacancy sign.
Yep--big shockers I know:)
At the beach the temperature was perfection--
and I do mean perfection.
The sky was clear--
except for a very, very few little clouds quite a ways out to sea.
The surf was perfect
and so...
was the sand
and these footprints:)
The Farmer Boy was happy...
as was DDD.
In fact, the DDD was VERY happy...
and so was her mom-me!
And now the question is...
how will we cool down tomorrow?
How are you staying cool?
Blessings,
Aimee

Yes - the best place to be during this heat wave! Nice photos.
ReplyDeleteYou are the going-est girl I know! :-) My mom would like you, she loved to go go go.. and I got that from her. We've got 2 AC units going to keep our house cool, but we're spending a lot of time on the deck under the gazebo next to the pond. Stay cool! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Aimee,
ReplyDeleteWe drive home from Portland to Spokane this afternoon and it was hit, ht, hot! I sure wish we could have joined you at the coast instead. Tomorrow I go to the lake where it is forecast to be 102F. Ack! Your beach time sounds lovely to me.
Blessings,
Betsy

@Teresa~
Yep, I am on the go a lot--usually once to twice a week! LOL--I got my love of travel from my mom too:)
I'm glad you guys are staying cool-we installed our window a/c yesterday and it was such a blessing to finally have a cool living area!
Your gazebo is wonderful--I am glad you are enjoying it so much:)
Stay cool also!
Blessings,
Aimee
@Betsy~
I wish you could have been able to make it to the beach too--but seeing your little grandblessing, I am sure, was a great joy to you!
Yikes--102! I hope you have a/c there!
Drive safe, stay cool:)
Blessings,
Aimee
New England hasn't been too too bad. went had a short heat wave ... now mostly 80 's . Our air conditioner went kapoot last year . We are going to see if we can get by this year just with fans ...hmm will see.
ReplyDeleteI am greatful for the weather we have had all things considered.
Stay cool Aimee ...lovely beach .
@Willow~
ReplyDeleteWe tried fans too but I am very sensitive to the heat as I had heat exhaustion several years ago. That is awesome that you have been able to be cool enough with just fans--hopefully you will continue to have temps in the 80's :)
Have a wonderful 4th of July!
Blessings,
Aimee
