Recent retiree--35 year's experience teaching reading, English, adult basic education and volunteer leadership skills. Started this blog to exchange ideas and commentary with friends and others having an interest in joining the discussions. Greatest life accomplishments include:
1.organized my 3rd grade class to check out library books for me to get around librarian's weekly limit--Amazon.com, the Mullins Elementary 3rd Grade Class of 1956 is still waiting for "thank you" notes;
2. volunteered in the Peace Corps, island of St. Kitts, West Indies; 3.taught adults to read, earn their GEDs., and speak English as a second language; 4. bought a border collie puppy for $6, got evicted rather than give him up, and began a life-long love affair with all things "Dog"; 5. joined a physical fitness boot camp in my mid-50s--don't mess with someone who's been doing regulation pushups in wet grass at 5:30 a.m.; 6. walked across Northern England with best friend Sally--over 80 miles from the Irish to North Seas; and 7. travelled to many foreign countries for pleasure and work.
Gorgeous photos! I love the sea-stars (we used to call them star-fish, but the grandson informed me they were sea-stars)...and the colors were so pretty!
Hi there - thanks for the visit - you may also like my other blog (there is a tab at the top of my photo blog) - more words, less pictures, better stories!
The coral and star fish in your post are a lot like the ones I saw alive on the reef.
Love the sea and collect souvenirs to remind me of it every chance I get. I have items like these but keep them in my bathroom where I can enjoy them many times a day.
Love the sky reflection in the tabletop. Interesting capture because it makes the coral look as if it is sitting in water.

So pretty....perfect to decorate a beach place!

Beautiful gifts from the sea!
They certainly know how to decorate a garden! Beautiful stuff!
so lovely, I've always wanted to find something big on the beach, but alas I have to resort to buying the sea gifts instead. :)

they look great. But nowadays I´m not sure you should buy any.
It's lovely when our gifts of the sea blend with the gifts from the garden.
