Don't you just love fireworks?

All the different displays that are put out there just amaze me!


You have the spikes, kind of looking like a wheat field.

You have the ones that look like a urchin or a sideways jelly fish.

You have the ones that look like spiders.

You have the stardust with twinkles.

There are the spiney kind or star bursts.

You have your carnations.

And then you have the big ending.
I always love the way they end.
All the colors and all the smoke and sounds
Makes the whole thing worth watching!
I do so Love the Fireworks!

I took the most relaxing trip this past weekend.

I crossed the stone bridge to the Island and it was wonderful!

The clouds would make you think a storm was coming in,
then the clouds would disappear and the sun would come out again.

There were some amazing sunsets!

No two sunsets are ever exactly the same on the island.


And some sunsets set the sky a blaze!

Or it can light up a sail boat in a beautiful way!

And this weekend was military appreciation weekend,
there was a rock climbing wall and scuba diving lessons, and paddle boat rides
there was wine tasting and food .
My husband and I
Volunteered to help out.

Even people from the main land came to the island
to enjoy the festivities.
I even got to meet and shake the hand of State Sen. Darrel J. Aubertine ,
before he had to rush off to give a speech on the island.
He was very friendly!
It was a busy day that day for my husband and I, but it was fun too.

And the people took back pleasant memories of their day on the island .
Withall the help the volunteers gave to them while they were on the island.

While we relaxed after the festivities and enjoyed yet another beautiful sunset,

and later that night

Our friends built an amazing campfire and we sat and talked
all about the days events.

Don't you just love a camp fire?
One that has a nice flame rising from it , on a cool night.
A good camp fire you can gaze into the flames and a
animal looks like it is there.
"This one looks like a crocodile in the flames."
You can gaze into the fire and day dream about what ever you want,
as the golden glow takes your mind to many places.

Or you can roast a few marshmellows as long as they,
Don't fall off your stick and into the fire.
What a way to warm up on a cool night
 then to sit in a Chair and feel the heat coming from the fire.

I just love a camp fire on a cool quite night!

Have you ever wondered,
how so many people can afford to own a boat?
Not only do they have the money to buy the boat,
But they have to pay for a slip at the marina for their boat.
And though I love boats and being out on the water!
Think about the expenses, the cost of the boat,the insurance on the boat,
The cost of the boat slip at the marina, the gas to go out boating.
The trailer and the vehicle to transport the boat to the marina,
and the insurance on those.
All of this just for a few hours of boating...hmmm..thinking,
No it is not worth all that expense to me.
I can get a boat ride from a boat rental place and pay far less, thank you!

Coming back from my daughters house tonight I was worrying about my husband.
See he had this procedure done and found out he has a 55% blockage in the artery of his heart.
I was sliently praying to GOD that he will be ok.
When something told me to look over to the right and there in all it's glory was
this amazing sky. And I felt a peace come over me like everything will be alright.
It was as though GOD had touched the sky to let me know that things will be ok.
You could not have made a more perfect sky,
the sun rays were twice as brilliant as this picture depicks.
GOD really is GREAT!
And his glory shows in the sky above.
GOD sent down his peace and love!
Thank you GOD for the peace and the contenment in my time of need!

Silhouettes  against the night sky!
A runner runs along the shore line just as the sun starts to set.
2 works carry things to a different destination.
A man ponders the sunset and the amazing skies.
2 people in love enjoy a quiet evening watching the sunset.

A man stands on the shore looking back his wife, the photographer,
he wonders why so many pictures of Silhouettes and why
he has to be one of them.

What do they say?
A good day of boating is better then a bad day at work.
Or is it a good day of fishing,
 is better then a bad day at work?

Who would not want to be out on this water boating ,
when the temps are so hot the past couple days?
Even jet skiing would be better then sitting in this heat!
Yes I think it is a Good day on the water,
is better then a bad day at work , or a bad day
just sitting in the heat!
