never wanna say goodbye

Alternately titled: If I post all the pictures, maybe that means the vacation is actually OVER.

So, um yeah – I haven’t been around much, blogwise, this summer, and I could go into an incredibly detailed explanation of why that is but it would mostly involve way more exposition of my personality than I find is needed by the general public.  Let’s just say I alternate between gazing at the horizon…

And slightly obsessive perfectionism.

That’s my lame explanation for why, almost a month later, pictures like this have not been posted.

I apologize, really I do.

But today found me needing a break from the 250 page cookbook layout that my life is currently entrenched in (maybe, if you’re REALLY LUCKY, I’ll tell you more about that later.  Wait, who am I kidding?  I think I’ve detailed the process for anyone who has been unfortunate enough to ask how I was doing at any point in the last week). And what better way to break is there than to remember a walk in the surf?

And think on a few of our favorite things – like peace signs…

and souvenir t-shirts…

stripey beach towels…and yes, that is my other most favorite chair in the background…

and sunglasses.  Oh, the sunglasses.

And of course, a chair on the end of the row, nothing but beach in your view.  Wish you were there, friends – heck, wish I was too…
