Halloween Sunsets are Coming!

Is it me or are the sunsets starting to have an eerie glow?

Halloween is in the air!

Carlsbad Rainbows

A visit to Orange County...on the return trip to San Diego, 

it poured rain but it didn't dampen our spirits.  

Then the most amazing thing happened!  A beautiful rainbow appeared during 

the rain and within moments, a double rainbow!  It was breathtaking!

 All of these photos were taken from the window while
we were traveling down the 5 Freeway near Carlsbad, CA. 

 And...all of them were taken with our iPhones!

What a show! Mother Nature in all her glory...

 

Robert loaded three end-to-end shots of the rainbow into
Photoshop and created a triptych collage. 
I love it!

A rain storm, a double rainbow and an incredible sunset...what a beautiful day! 

Thanks for sharing the memories, Robert!

Visitors from the North

My cousin, Anne, and her husband, Steve, came from Michigan to San Diego for a huge celebration!  They were celebrating Anne's birthday, Steve's birthday and their anniversary.  Their children's gift to them was a week at the Hotel Del Coronado!

 

I haven't seen my cousin in almost 35 years and it was so nice to spend the afternoon at the Del with Anne and Steve reliving our childhood days.  We had lunch on the deck overlooking the ocean...it was a beautiful day with lots of conversation.

I hope it isn't another 35 years before we get together again!

HURRICANE SEASON

It's "Hurricane Season" in Folly Beach, SC and the entire east coast!  Danielle just left her present, choppy surf and heavy rip currents.  Now Earl is threatening to hit NC by Friday, a category 4 right now!  We're hoping he passes right on by or maybe burns himself out!  Fiona is coming right behind him.  Such is life on the east coast.

On the lighter side, the water temperature is 86 degrees (dropped 2 degrees this week) and it's been HOT, HOT, HOT all summer long on Folly Beach near Charleston.  We're enjoying the water and sunshine.  We've had major lightning storms the past couple of weeks.  Quite a light show!

ROAD TRIP

Girlie, Mimi, Nana, Nick, Brad and Chris

(Front L to R) 

On our road trip to Michigan for Deb's 30th class reunion in July we stopped in MD to visit the Corsaut's.   What a great group, Nana and her 5 grandchildren.  We had so much fun and John & Katies's and wish we could have stayed longer!


We also made side trips to Washington, D.C., VA...Hershey, PA...Cedar Pointe in Sandusky, OH...Mount Mitchell, NC and stayed in the 80 year old log cabins used in the movie Thunder Road!  We had a great time for 2 1/2 weeks before returning home to Folly Beach, SC


As soon as I load all of my pictures, I'll add them to this post......
