Oh! How I long to be at the beach! It is going to be a long, cold winter here. Yesterday it was 7 degrees at 7:30 in the morning, not mentally prepared for winter this year. Be safe all.
Winter got here soon

Wow, where do you live that it's that cold already? My sister lives in Chicago and they are expecting snow today, which is a little unusual even for them. I'm glad I'm in Maryland.......not too bad winters here.

Nborchardt we got our first snow last week, luckily it was less than an inch so melted by afternoon....I was not a happy camper when I looked out at 3am and saw it snowing. The beach looks better all the time....I know where it's almost summer, lets go visit Aussie....lol!!!!!!! Be safe and blessings to you and yours.

I'm not a fan of winter either, but here in Maryland it's not too bad. Every once in awhile we have a really big snow, but mostly it's cold and icky. I like the weather to get cold enough to kill all the mosquitos and other pests......since I'm retired I don't have to worry about the weather like I used to.

Lilbc sorry it's taken so long to answer you I live in central Oregon on top of the mountains. We have a few peaks in the area that are higher than we are. Looks like one of the ski resorts must be open as we are seeing ski's on car racks. Hope your winter will not be too bad. Take care, be safe.

I haven't been to Oregon since the 80s. I'll bet you have beautiful views. It's a gorgeous state and I'd love to go back sometime and see more. I was in Port Orford.

Went to Oregon when I was 16 to judge a skating meet. Was so surprised how cold the seashore was in mid July. Saw Multnomah Falls where my brother went out on the trestle tracks with a train coming. Don't worry. He got off in plenty of time but gave my folks a heart attack. Missed out on a trip to Crater Lake as I had to do judging that day.

Lilbc haven't been to Maryland went around it though when I was with my hubby on one of his runs to up state New York. Wish I could have seen all the states, came close to it. My son liked Maryland....he also went on a couple of trips with his Dad. Port Orford is really a nice area been there quite a few times. You stay safe.

Pixi what kind of skating were you judging? How did you become a judge? Multnomah Falls is very tall and pretty, but it seems like every year someone is killed there either trying to get a better look or take a picture. Crater Lake is an interesting lake, volcanic cone that collapsed and filled with water. Wonder how deep it is? There is an island in the middle and the road runs around the rim. Camping available there. I think If your brother had been my son and scared me out of 10 years of my life with that stunt he wouldn't be able to sit down for a week lol!!! Be safe.

I judged the National meet for the RSROA --that's a roller skating organization sponsered by the rink operators. I judged several freestyle events. We did the same items you see the artisitic ice skaters do except in those days few men on ice or rollers could do more than a double. No women did triples although some of the senior men could.
To become a judge I had to take a series of tests to be certified. I was a competitive skater and managed to get on the World team one year for the ARSA (a different organization) but the following year I was the only one they didn't take eventhough I won the nationals and skated a perfect routine at the meet that is supposed to be the last step toward being chosen.

Aussie extra big hugs back to you and laughed so hard I had tears running down my face because of what you set me...thanks bunches. Be safe my friend.
For those of you who have not heard, California is burning again. One entire town was destroyed! Our valley is filled with smoke again even though we are far away from the fires. School was closed due to bad air quality. Please pray for all those effected by the fires.
Praying for you all to be safe! And prayers to the brave men & women fighting these fires that they be unharmed & successful in putting out the fires. God bless you all.

Prayers for all of the affected areas. California always seems to have a fire somewhere. It's terrible to have to start your life over again.

Yeah, it is terrrible to have to start your life over again. My daughter is still here from the fire last year. They were not able to go back to their rented house because the owner needed a place to live after his house burned. I could have been so much worse for them. Everrything within 20 feet of their hose burned but they had maintained a defensable space around theirs and no one else had. At least they did not lose everything they owned. We are all praying for the firefighters. They do such a dangerous job and don't think about themselves at all.
So close to the water. Must not be open ocean there or the first storm would float that away. Top of the line for a lifeguard station.
I did the other puzzle...just snapped this together on the six piece choice to see it large.
Not wishing for a beach but a very short winter would be nice providing that wouldn't harm the ecosystem.
