Oregon Beach Photos

I had a great weekend at the Oregon Beach! It was warm, sunny with not much wind! Uncommonly good weather for this time of year. It was beautiful so I took lots of photos between Lincoln City and Newport. Lots of surfers were out at the Otter Rock/Devil's Punchbowl beach.....


Hope you had a great weekend as well! I'm off to list some new things in my etsy shops! Have a good day! Kitty

Adding Vintage Costume Jewelry To My Etsy Shop!


Sales have been fairly slow for me on Etsy as of late. It couldn't be that I haven't listed or renewed much, could it? I think I will be adding some new inventory tomorrow and the rest of the week. It seems that I do much better when I continually add new things to all of my shops. Makes sense the way Etsy is set up...

I still have loads of vintage jewelry just sitting here waiting to be photographed and listed.  I still have photos from a year ago that I haven't gotten around to listing yet! I "cherry-pick" my favorites to list and save the rest for later......much later! Silly, I know!



The weather is starting to improve around here. I took my grandkids on a walk yesterday. We were out at least 30 minutes walking around the neighborhood I grew up in. Nostalgic for me...boring for them!

I'm trying to make the effort to get outside more often. I like to spend most of my time outside during the summer but right now...it's a little harder to get me out there! I think I will try to weed my flower beds around the front porch this week as well. Time to replace the bark mulch as well.I've been TOO home bound this winter and I need to get out!



The photos are pieces of jewelry that I will be listing during the week. Please watch my shop if you are interested in anything! Thanks for reading.....Kitty

A Warm Breeze........







 


  

 


  





Okay, I've had it with winter!
I know I keep saying that.....so I am going to pretend it isn't winter today.
It's warm and the sun is shining.....

Here are some photos that I took at the Oregon State Fair this past August.
  I love the gardens and ponds that they have every year.
Always colorful and creative.

Since I was with a group of uninterested family....
I had to dash through the garden
and take photos on the way to the food!
I would have taken many more but I was running.....
Enjoy!

Winter In Oregon



We spent the day at Benson Sno-Park on Sunday.
There were 2 full carloads of family!
We spent several hours there.
I usually watch everyone else ride their sleds down the hill.
And take photos.
I played with these at Picnik.
They look much more dramatic than the originals!

I hope you had a fun weekend too!

Oh, For Evan's Sake!



This is my grandson Evan.
We spent the day together.
Just him and I.
That doesn't happen very often.
(One of my New Year's Resolution's too)

I asked him if I could take his photo and he said "Sure".
He sounded much happier about it then he looked.
He's almost 4 and the middle grandchild.

He is adorable and
I LOVE his beautiful eyes.

 He's a sweetie too despite this evidence to the contrary!

And he's r.e.a.l.l.y good at making faces!
