With Love,

It's been weighing on my mind.
Every morning when I log onto my computer and see the date of my last blog post
Thursday, September 13th!!!
What a lamo' blogger I have been this fall.
This morning as I was lamenting my lameness, my cell phone started churping with new text message alerts.  Yes!  There is a blogger God and I have been blessed (several times over).

My husband is traveling for work this week and staying at the beautiful Hotel Coronado in San Diego.
This morning, he took a pre-function walk on the beach and captured some wonderful images of the Sand Castle Art created by the artists employed by the hotel.

There's no better way to end my blog lameness than to share these with you.

Thanks to the hubs, Ray Batten for always thinking of ways to brighten up my day even when we're several time zones apart.  xoxox

This past January I had the opportunity to travel to The Coronado with Ray for a 

business function.  Below is the view from our beautiful room and our 

smiling faces as we spend the day as tourists.

Have a great week!  Hope you're getting all your Christmas shopping done.  

I started mine yesterday!

Freedom. . .

A visit to the 

Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery just west of downtown San Diego took my breathe away and reminded me that the Freedom we so enjoy as Americans is many things, but Free is not one of them.

There are 101, 079 graves at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery dating back to 1882.

It sounds cliche' to say that pictures speak louder than words - yet in this situation this blogger's words seem small and feel like unwanted company to this post.

Thank You and God Bless
