I know that so much of our country is just freezing right now! I have a very dear friend in Chicago who keeps me up to date. Last year the same thing happened with the polar vortex. While much of the country was freezing , we were mild. In fact, the weather people are beginning to worry as our snow pack in the mountains(where we get much of our summer water) is only 52% of what it should be. Well, yesterday was beautiful and we took a beach walk. I hope you enjoy the pictures, we had a great walk.
My progress on PS Weather.
View from the beach across Puget Sound.
Two of my favorite things, mountains, and water.
Guarding the beach!!
The sea-weed was especially colorful yesterday! Plus I love seeing all the beach textures.
Thanks for joining me and have a wonderful day!!
Oh I want that piece of driftwood!! I have been looking for a good piece for a year!! Thanks for sharing your walk... I love the beach and walking along the surf's edge, with the sandpipers. Too cold right now! Ha!
ReplyDeleteWell we are in a polar vortex right now...BRRRR!!
ReplyDeleteI love, love your WIP :) One of my favs!
I know that we are not as cold as our Northern friends, but this Southern girl is cold down here--10 degrees last night. Way too cold!! : )
ReplyDeleteThank you for the beach walk photos and your WIP is looking great!!
I believe we Canadians are provy to the polar vortex too! This weather is just ridiculous. Yesterday our wind chill was -43 celcius. And it just doesn't let up. I love your stitching - its coming along so nicely. We just love that saying in our house - I get excited when I see a red sky in the morning. I always like a bit of dramatic weather! LOVE the beach photos. We will see the beach at the end of June or July. :(
ReplyDeleteJealous! It's nasty cold here! Your stitching is coming along nicely! Thanks for sharing your beach pictures! I can't wait for beach season, well except for the traffic! :-)
ReplyDeleteThose mittens made me smile!!
ReplyDeleteI love a beach walk, and I am on the beach every morning before sunrise - when I'm home. Aren't we lucky with where we live?!
Nice pictures. I like the cross stitch. Greetings from holland ( 10 degrees and a lot of rain everyday on the moment.
ReplyDeleteLovely photo's, I miss the sand, our beaches are pebbles.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, water and mountains are the best combination. Wonderful pictures from your beach walk. And great progress on your Prairie Schooler.
ReplyDeleteNice pics!! Your stitching is looking great!!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than a wintery walk on the beach! Love the interesting finds.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos Barb, thanks for sharing. Your stitching looks great too!
ReplyDeleteWe are freezing here!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on your WIP, and love the pics of the seaweed and Eagle.

It must be so nice to get outside and take a walk at this time of year, Barb--thanks for the lovely photos! We were at 0° yesterday when I woke up and the high for the day was only 10! But, this winter has been so, so much easier than last with that long spell of frigid weather...
ReplyDeleteYour PS piece is looking great and I'm sure you're enjoying stitching this one.
Enjoy your week and send some of that warmer weather to us folks out east, Barb :)
What beautiful scenery! I would give anything to take a walk on the beach right now or have the temperature above 30 degrees. Love your latest stitching. It looks great. Thanks for sharing!

Oh, how I love where you live - so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking us on your walk Barb ..Sure can't go for a walk here ! Love your stitching ...Anything Prairie Schooler makes me a happy person ! Have a great weekend !
ReplyDeleteWonderful pics! Wish it was warm enough here to go to the beach!! Alas, we will have to wait until spring!! Laura
ReplyDeleteThose mittens are darling! I would love to have a beach nearby to go walking on. You are lucky!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures!
ReplyDeleteLove your stitching Barb and what fantastic photos.You live in a wonderful place.
ReplyDeleteI love your WIP, Barb, the colors of the floss against the fab are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of beautiful, your pics are breath taking...what a gorgeous area you live in. I have never been to the Pacific NW but I have a nephew who lives in Seattle and adores it! Isn't it so funny that down my way it's all desert close to the ocean...funny country we live in.
Have a great weekend
Hugs
Loving your PS progress. That is such a great chart. And thanks for the beach walk. It's a great reminder that this weather will pass on for much better weather soon. Right? LOL
ReplyDeleteLove your beach pictures - ahhhh lovely. Now back to reality brrrrr! Haha!
ReplyDeleteAren't PS charts the best? Something about their simple graphic art. I repeat that saying every time I see a red sky.
ReplyDeleteLove your beach photos! You live in such a gorgeous part of the world.
ReplyDeletePS Weather is just lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove taking a walk with you Barb! I adore the mountains and sea too. Funny how I can see Mt. Baker from the top of our street on a clear day or when I travel over the Lion's gate bridge. Neat to see your view of it. Love the PS weather stitch!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are so lovely! Feel like I was walking right alongside of you! :)
ReplyDeleteThe Pacific Ocean, snow-capped mountains and majestic eagles! You certainly have it all in your backyard Barb!
