  3. Looks like a nice week despite the rain. We could use some of that, but instead we should get our first freeze and maybe even some snow.

  4. Wonderful images. Nice variety.

  5. Any view of the ocean is beautiful to me -whether sunny or stormy! Wonderful photography as usual. Love that Zoe:) Of course I also enjoy your art and haikus too. Happy bird watching!

  6. I bet she loves to be off leash on the beach, the crazy poodle does too, they are just banning dogs from our beach 24/7! Such a shame as we all love the beach!

  8. Love the first picture. The sun light on water looks glorious! Watching birds is a pleasure indeed. I enjoy birds coming to our feeder. My kitties enjoy them, too, but maybe with different reason :-)

  14. That is a mighty shadow for such a little girl! I hope you (both) have months of off-leash weather before it gets too cold to enjoy the beach.
    Adore the etagami this week -- perfect for the season!

  30. Hi Carol, oh my, I am out of the loop, it has been a long while since I visited you and LV too! I was over there, saw your comment to her, and came here. I have been blogging a lot but not making the rounds as I love to! I miss Jenny and sent her a long newsy letter with a card a few weeks ago. I wonder if anyone knows how she is? I sure miss all the people who participated with her. I see you do another Alphabet meme. Always a fun time. Have a great weekend. My goodness the time flies. Good to see you here. Joyful Hugs, Anne

  37. Hello Carol, watching the birds does fill my heart! Loved that beach photo of what I think was a fishing weight, however... you could write a magical story about that being an undersea locket of merprince or maid... Zoe's shadow is amazing! Have a beautiful weekend in the changing of the seasons you share so beautifully. XO
