I have been out of the "Blogging Community" loop for awhile as Mr. B and I went to visit our son, Jon in Redondo Beach for 6 days and I have been painting my little heart out trying to prepare for 3 new shows! I even brought my painting supplies to Southern California so I could fit in an hour or two whenever it was possible. We had great light and a view of the marina and a partial ocean view.
The weather was perfect and living by the ocean fit me just fine! We had a good visit with Jon and spent some time walking on the beach.....
Newsflash - Mr. B without his shoes on! |
Watching the surfers in Manhattan Beach......
Enjoying the tropical flowers that don't grow in Northern California.....
And the beautiful sunsets......
We went to Art Galleries in Torrance and Laguna Beach. The guys were not too keen on visiting galleries so I was pushing it at two!
We also visited Mission San Juan Capistrano which is beautiful and serene during the week but on Sunday (when we went) there were 4 weddings going on and groups of soccer kids running amuck.
Jon had some great recommendations for yummy dining from around the world!
But mostly we just hung out and enjoyed our time with Jon. Thanks Jon-E-B for sharing your little corner of the world!
"We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch - we are going back to whence we came." - John F. Kennedy

are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to
sail or to watch - we are going back from whence we came.
