So ...
I was at the beach yesterday.
I know you find it shocking to hear I would go to the beach (again).
If it makes you feel any better, I didn't go until the Women's World Cup game ended. (And wow - what an ending!)
I didn't take many photos because the light was harsh during most of my time there. (Harsh light makes for bad photos - see above!)
The water was really warm, which was nice.
But ...?
There was a lot of seaweed floating around.
Sometimes that happens for a day or two.
I gave up on the idea of taking photos and went for a long, long, walk instead.
I ended up finding a much nicer (less seaweed-filled) spot.
I might have gone for a swim.
And then I sat, wet - and without a towel, on the sand.
After awhile, I remembered the forty bazillion (!!!) things I have to get done in the next few days and decided it was time to leave.
I walked back to where Briefcase sat, reading, on the beach.
We walked to the parking lot.
When I sat in Briefcase's car, a ton of sand might have immediately fallen off of me.
Hypothetically, his-wife-always-getting-sand-in-his-car might be a pet peeve of my husband's. It's also something he's realized comes with the territory of being married to me.
Then we came home.
The end.

I spent yesterday taking 40-bajillion photos in harsh light yesterday, simply because I was following my favorite subject around and I forgot my lens hood. :)

I felt so relaxed after reading that. And I long for a bright, sunny beach. Lovely!

Sounds like a perfect day! My husband is the same way. After almost 25 years, he's gotten used to me and my unique ways. haha.
Have a great day.

If you can possibly imagine fourteen sandy bodies at least twice a week in my van..... It's like an effing sand box in my vehicle.
It's all part of SoCal. I LOVE IT!
