This was a beautiful January day at a beach on the Gulf Coast. I just love watching the water like this. It reminds me of an ocean filled with sparkly diamonds !
The scene from the window of a beautiful restaurant my husband and I ate at in Ocean Springs, MS. Can't remember the name, but the food was delicious. Oh and it was about 20 degrees outside.
We decided to go shopping the other day and this was the scene in the parking lot of the mall. And no we didn't have to fight crowded stores, so it worked out pretty good for us.
I'm sorry, I just refuse to stay home when the weather is bad. Please note that I am not driving and taking pictures!
A frozen fountain in front of the Ocean Springs, MS hospital the day I went to see my brother when he was so sick. It's not suppose to be this way in COASTAL Mississippi... is it?
I've been mesmerized by the trees as we pass by in late evening. So bare...
...and lonely looking
A very cold water spill at a nearby lake
If there is one thing that calms me, speaks peace to me and gives me great clarity of thought , is sitting near a body of water. I miss living close to the Gulf of Mexico so I tend to seek out water where ever I go.
Having visited my brother after he was transferred to Oshcner's hospital,in New Orleans, we took a little drive around the city to see some sights. This is an auto parts store who love the "who dats"! Apparently their store is on the first level. This is a shot of the second floor. Maybe the owners live on the top level?
OK, this is not a January picture. This was taken on Christmas day and my husband and I decided we would eat at the local China Wok for lunch. We kinda enjoy that for some reason. Maybe because the family on "Christmas Story" ate there. We had enjoyed Christmas Eve the night before with the children so it was just me and my guy. And yes, he brought his favorite "Bubba" teeth to clown around and embarrass me with!
Sometimes, we just crack ourselves up! LOL!
So...so long to January, you'll be missed but not forgotten...for more reasons than one!
Blessings everyone! Have a great Monday!
