Blue Monday: Awnings and Letters

Blue Awnings

Blue Letters; Blue striped towel and shirt

 On Sunday, we took a leisurely stroll down the pier. There's something so refreshing when a storm passes and clears the air. Southern California has sunny skies, once again! Our prayers go out for the Midwest with all the tornado action we've been seeing on the news.

  2. I think that blue looks so pretty against the sand color. I'm a Kansas resident and we escaped all the tornados. They were all around us.
