~~sand pipers out on a bright beautiful beach day~~

It's a LOUD Crazy afternoon here in San Francisco!
Go Niners!!

Found an incredible inland bay....no glass, but full of birds and such a peaceful place with the calm waters...

always a surprise to look down onto the sand and see a heart-stone...it is a sign to me that a certain someone is looking down at me and sending me love..

~~we are all islands on a common sea~~

~~autumn~~

there is this old-school garden nursery on the outskirts of town that is now on my list of ~~happy places~~. Plants and garden decor and hundreds of hummingbirds fighting over the dozens of feeders. It is peaceful there and it smells so fresh and I always come home with a delicious new plant variety that I can't live without.

~~pumpkin decorating~~

I found this most wonderful plump bright orange pumpkin to decorate for my work...

here it is 'in process' after all my doodles and swirls....

and here is the front after the glitter...

and the backside....truly a delightful experience to "color and play"...
