Beach
This week, let us be inspired by the Beach. Get creative with treasures from the beach. Illustrate a favorite beach scene. Think sand, sea, surf…
· · ·
Why do we love the sea? It is because it has some potent power to make us think things we like to think. 
· · ·
Get creative by interpreting this topic through art, words, photography, however you feel moved to express yourself. Post it on your blog, then leave your link* in the comments section of this post so we can go check it out.
* To ensure it is easy for us to find your work, please provide a link to a static page that will always show your submission, and not your website’s main page. Help! What’s a static page?
The cure for anything is salt water - sweat, tears, or the sea.
One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach; one can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few.

I wrote a beach poem last week in this post.
July 25th, 2008 at 4:58 amIt fits perfectly - although covers a not so pleasureable aspect of the beach.
Enjoy.

I grew up at the beach and I miss it so much. I made this little slide show video of the South Bay area in Los Angeles County.

I did this for 4 x 4 Friday but it fits this theme as well so I hope it will be acceptable.

We’ve been at the beach alot in the past few weeks. I try to get work done while I’m there (and simultaneously keep youngster entertained). If you dig back through older posts in my site, you’ll see other “beach” doodles.

Well, I had visions of creating something for the beach theme but alas it did not happen. I haven’t even been able to check out all the wonderful things that have been posted for this challenge. Hopefully will catch up soon. Here are some photos I took while in the Dominican Republic. http://laurelenglehardt.blogsp.....cenes.html

There’s nothing better than taking your family to the beach and enjoying the warm water.

A little Haiku this Thursday afternoon.
Gulf beaches
were home.
Sun sand kissed love
endless warmth.
I began life there.
