sunday snapshot # 15

First day of fall is this week......

Here's a last look at a summer trip to Atlantic City.

Find ways each day to love something..... find something to celebrate; it's what keeps us moving forward on those days when life just doesn't make sense and you want to give up.  There is goodness all around and if you cannot find it, then be it ......... and maybe it will start a chain reaction.

found a tiny shell (image 3), built our own "shell-henge" (image 11) and think we might have found Van Gogh's ear (image 14).....  sounds a little gross, but seriously look at it; I really think it could be....

ocean waves and salt water taffy....

roller coasters, helicopter rides and the arcade....

and the sunrise on our last day....

Atlantic City

Three generations of family fun.....  Philly cheesesteaks, ice waters, funnel cakes, salt water taffy, the boardwalk, sand, shells, waves..... and lots of giggles.

A day at the beach makes life seem so simple-- it seems to clarify what's true, what's important, and why we are here.  Walking along the shore, picking up shells, and jumping in the waves is good for the soul.
