Our World!

Ah, and into February we go!! By Golly time flies whether we’re having fun or not!!!  But I really can’t complain because I do have fun most of the time – even in our “cruddy” weather over the past few months!!!
Well, let’s drop the weather!! It has been pretty nice today and I’m hoping that we all have a wonderful new week!!
I took these at the beach in Seattle – one of my favorite places as you all know!! The snowy mountains are always a treat for the eyes!!
Enjoy your new week and find lots of things to make you smile, giggle and belly laugh for the whole new week!!!

I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but by how high he bounces when he hits bottom.

If you could choose one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humor.

  3. I do remember the snow on the tops from my only visit to Seattle, over 20 years ago. It felt almost like home.

  6. Water and mountains together are hard to beat! We've been getting lots of snow which is good for the ski mountain.

  7. A beach and snowy mountains - what a perfect combination, Sylvia. Although the beach does look rather cold. Have a great week; the dogs and I are staying inside through the snowstorm.
