my happy place

Just love visiting my elderly parents in New York and, going to my happy place…

We leave the east coast of Long Island for the east coast of Florida. Specifically the next few posts will be from another trip we took in May to the sunshine state. First stop, Delray Beach.

It’s hard not to make blue your favorite color in Florida.

end of the island

The spring weather in Illinois and in New York has been more like a crazy mash-up of Fall with a touch of Winter: lots of cold rain and gray skies. During my recent trip to New York a beautiful, sunny, bright day made an appearance that coincided with a last minute decision to go to the end of the island. So glad I did.

the chilly atlantic

Definitely too cold for a swim, and too cold for my feet! Perhaps in the summer.

A colorful shore for this post. It’s hard to put into words how much I miss the shore and, how peaceful it is for me to be there. Looking forward to my next visit.

shore time 4

Almost done with my shore time moments. A little more artsy for this post, but, I think the last one will be in color… or…would you prefer black and white?

shore time 3

Another moment along the shore.

but most of all

be still

into the light

I guess this is somewhat of a “New York” series now, with an emphasis on Jones Beach. The last five posts and the next few are all from my recent  trip to New York. This was a beautiful day at the shore. I believe this runner made it all the way to the sun.
