OCEAN WAVES AND MEMORIES

 

Since I'm still figuring out how to do things on my new computer, and since my original blog layout is messed up, I will use this lovely beach picture for my header until I figure it out.  I love this scene, as my heart has always loved the beach.
We were fortunate to serve in a Missionary Church is Santa Barbara for six years.  Our youngest daughter Jill was born there.  The three older siblings were school age, so every morning when I would drop off the children at school, I would head to the beach. Put Jill under my sweatshirt and nurse her and she would fall asleep to the sound of the waves.
Those are my treasured memories of Santa Barbara.
Fast forward...... Jill as an adult, has always lived by the ocean, whether San Diego, Encinitas, or Brooking OR, she never lost the sound of those early waves.
 
I'm going to keep the picture as my header, but now you know the story behind it!

  1. Oh what a glorious beach photo. I think if I had lived in So. Cal. and had the warm beaches near by would be a lot more fond of them. Drizzly Pacifica and San Francisco were great for photography but not so much for sitting on the sand.

    1. So thankful for memories, as this old body doesn't get many beach trips. The beaches in Santa Barbara were beautiful, and the weather was almost perfect. Hope you and Dave are doing well. Sending hugs.
