LIFE'S A BEACH!

Happy 4th of July to everyone.   

Lisa, the Navy says they have the best pilots because they have to take off land any kind of plane on a floating runway that is only about 140 yards long! 

Naval bases are always close to a beach!   

Great to see all the stars, stripes and fireworks!!!

My hubby served 4 years in the Navy, aboard the JF Kennedy Aircraft carrier. He was one who worked on the deck, helping to launch and land the jets. That's where he got bit by the flyer/pilot bug. We saw a documentory that his job was the third most dangerous job possible. He was barely 20 at the time.

Look at my wee Wonder-pips. What happened to my babies?

Hope everyone is ready to celebrate in style.

Joni? What's your favorite cake??

We've frozen a lot of our blue berries.

Since I started the whole BSBI thing, I take credit (blame?) for bringing sex into the discussoin too!!! Lisa, again thanks for your service nad your family's service ... never thought about the fact that navy pilots would have to take off and land nad be good at both ... don't tell my marine brother that he might have competition for best!

Hi Raj...first I put my photos in picasa (a free download from google) then upload them into Picasa web album you need to set that up...then bring the click on the  image you want to make it by itself. Right click on it to get the image location...then click on the little green tree above this box and it opens a box that asks for URL location. Paste the location there and below click on insert. Sometimes I have to do it twice in a row for it to work.

I am sure others have an easier way, but that is the way I do it..

Raj, good to see you...it's been a while!  That's an awesome picture.

Happy Fourth of July everyone

Here's how we spent our morning, aside from my bay beach, Stone Harbor, NJ is my favorite ocean beach!  By the way, I upload my pics to my Facebook page then I just right-click on the image and select copy, then right-click in this window and select paste.

My DH just returned from the east coast.Had to share this shot with the beachettes.Puffins are so beautiful.

Wow Mum! Tell TinyFishy that was a great shot!

When we went down to the bay earlier, we got out of the car and there in the reeds were thousands of dragonflies. It must be breeding season? I got this pic - look at the rop of each reed, you'll see a dragonfly sitting on each one - plus some in the middle. So glad the camera cooperated!
