Beach Scenes - 7/13

I love taking pictures, not just with my fancy camera but with my cell phone or my old point and shoot. I'm no camera snob, I'll take a picture with whatever I have handy. I share some pictures on social media but more often than not they sit on my camera(s) and phone only remembered when looking for things to delete. I've been trying to think of a way to share more of these pictures, enter beach scenes. A monthly (or more) post of fun interesting things seen during my every day beach life.








Sunrise Watching - I love watching the sunrise during the summertime. I take Salem with me and we head down to the marsh. Sometimes I leave everyone home and head to the point by myself to watch the sunrise over the barrier island next door.




Interesting Finds - From painted fire hydrants and trash cans to a brightly colored door on the Mexian restaurant there's always something for Little K and I to explore.




Vintage Signs - I was taking a back road in order to avoid tourists when I noticed these cool vintage signs painted on the side of a local building.



Food Things - A late night homemade ice cream trip, Italian ice on the beach, and the best grilled shrimp burger ever. (I clearly need food things practice).



Visiting Bama - We spent 4th of July weekend visiting with Bama (my mom for those of you not yet in the know). There are lots of shrimp boats floating and not by Bama's house.



Beach Time - Enjoying the beach in the evenings after tourists and before dark is one of our favorite things.




Playing Tourist - Every once and a while we venture out to the touristy locales to see what's going on. A visit to The OD Pavilion recently ended in a run for the car in the rain.

What scenes have you captured lately?

  3. This post makes me want to visit your town. I love seeing all the little things that people don't normally show, like the painted garbage cans and the vintage signs.

  4. I love the fire hydrants! Quirky shops and murals is one of my favorite things about small towns. I always notice how the logos and store branding is much bolder and sillier than it is back home. Something about being at the beach lets people relax and not worry if things are "professional."

  5. I just love all your pictures!! Those fire hydrants are so cool!!! Little things like that and pretty "graffiti" are my favorite things to see! I just really want some ice cream now. So bad.
