Listen to the Symphony

Today being Wednesday....

(all day...  my goodness where is this week going????) 

The Challenge of Frilly and Funkie is starting ...  this week Rebecca has requested that we create something that is

COOL WATER... 

I should have waited a day longer and posted my other challenges today... ugh.. .anyway... if you are interested, I did a Mermaid card yesterday... you can find it here...  it is called Water Water and more water... 

Okay... back to today... Wednesday... 

I thought okay... the other picture is not really frilly and I wanted to do a frilly card... have not really been in the FRILLY mood recently...  but needed to do something a little frilly... so here it is...

 

Down by the SEA... 

I use to spend a lot of time at the Atlantic ocean growing up...  Maine, Cape Cod, and the JERSEY shore... and also we would take summer trips to Florida and Connecticut... all fun times with swimming and collecting shells, lobster trapping, watching the little sand piper birds, collecting Sand Dollars... and of course listening to the SYMHPONY of the waves... 

 

this is my Cool Waters...  Maine was truly Cool Waters.. we generally didn't go in swimming until late August... and then you would turn blue after about 10 minutes...  but I loved it... 

Memories of the summers...  with family... many generations of them all over the entire Island..  a grand time with four generations of my maternal side of the family... 

 

 

I can remember going to the Cape also... and entirely different shells, sand beaches were not at a premium there... where we were at least... but I knew all the people there.. and they were mainly my age...  fun times for a preteenager...   

 

But then we have the Jersey Shore... wow... now a teenager and the shore had it all to offer...  fun and games...  lots of different kinds of memories...  different shells, sandy plus beaches and lots of things to do... night and day... spent many summers there... 

 

All in all the SYMPHONY of the OCEAN... was always the same...  peaceful and soft... and full of life...  not matter where you are... the oceans are wonderfully packed with all kinds of critters and plant life... we must take better care of our oceans... of the SYMPHONY will stop to play this beautiful melody...

 

 

 

 

Now in my life... I live not close to the ocean and I live in the mountains, and love looking and listening to the SYMPHONY of the woods... and the animals that live in them... 

Coyote off in the distant howling, raccoons trying to get into the chickens, bears rummaging through a left over picnic near by, and then we have the deer that love to come and eat our produce and sample everything we grow... LOL... not funny, but so very true... 

 

Listen to the COOL WATERS of the Rivers and Brooks and the midnight moon flicker on the cool summer waters... 

 

Thanks Rebecca for bringing this theme to me... I have enjoyed the memories of the COOL WATERS... 

 

Hope you have a fun day... and enjoy a swim. 

Thanks for stopping by for a visit on my blog and also thank you so very much for all the lovely and wonderful comments that are left... I read each and every one and cherish the love that they come with... 

 

Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
