SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY 5.13.12

"Tile TIMELINE" ~ AVILA BEACH


MOTHER'S DAY +
what could be better???

Didn't post much last week....
but, looking to change that this week!!

Some photos of this week's words
SIDEWALK, INSPIRING, TIME, CLOSE-UP
& WITH MIRROR
SIDEWALK
The "redesigned" SIDEWALK in Avila Beach! Lovely tile-work details the evolution of this formerly "funky" beach community. I'll post more about how Avila Beach acquired this sidewalk in tomorrow's post!

INSPIRING
This picture was not taken intentionally for SHS. For those of you who know me {personally}, you know I'm a "quote" & "self-help" junkie. I love books that provide INSPIRATION... I was practicing taking nighttime pictures... & didn't plan to use this pic, so it's really bugging me that there are two specks of white dust next to the book.

TIME
To welcome 2000, this clock was erected outside the San Luis Obispo County Court house after being donated by the Arnold Volny Family. The inscription on the dial face reads, "Spend TIME with those you love" ~ JPE & I were in SLO yesterday to grab a bite to eat & see the movie, "Salmon Fishing in Yemen" ~ funny title... it's actually an adorable love story!

CLOSE-UP
I didn't realize how many colorful pieces of art I'll see when we travel to PERU this summer. Here's a CLOSE-UP of two pieces in my current collection. The HEART was purchased from THE FOLK TREE & the other item is a Peruvian WHISTLE (which SLE brought back from her trip to PERU). I've posted about them HERE & HERE!!!

WITH MIRROR
I carry my Canon Point & Shoot & I-Phone in my purse ~ good thing, because JPE pointed out this photo op! This is SOOC (Straight Out Of the Camera)! Before we crossed the street towards the JCPenney's building, we looked up & saw this reflection. I think this qualifies for WITH MIRROR... (the trees across the street are planted in front of the GAP).

I've heard from my girls
(either by email, phone, or written cards)...
I LOVE my girls... 

to all
the beautiful girls... ladies... special women
in my life &
cyber-space!!!

  12. What a wonderful way to spend Mother's Day! I love the photo of the clock in SLO and its inscription; spending time with those we love is one of the greatest things we can do. I also love the beautiful items from Peru! I cannot wait to see all of the great photos and hear all of the exciting stories after your trip to Peru!

    It is truly an honor to be part of your, ACE's, and your family's life. Seeing firsthand just how much you care about your daughters and how involved you are in their lives is such an amazing thing.

    Happy Mother's Day!

    Love,
