Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future...
I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea...
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me...
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I'm free...
Oh, Lord, through the revolution
(lyrics by Steve Miller)
Feeling a bit melancholy tonight....can you tell?
The good news is that I will be flying soon...next week,
... in fact I will be flying to the sea!
And while I'm there I will be visiting my parents and in-laws and sweet sister Lynn.
It is just for a week but it will be a nice transition period...
...a time to think about my plan of action...
I'm looking forward to some warm weather... walks on the beach...late night chats with my sister...early morning coffee with my mom and dad...
...Why am I melancholy? Gee, I just cheered myself up!
Too bad Starla and Mr. Flea are staying behind...
...but somebody has to hold down the fort!
:)
Don't you just love blue-gray...blue-green?
The colors of the sea.....
No?
If you could only see one color....which color would it be?
wonderful collection of sea blue photo's - have fun at the seaside :)
ReplyDeleteThose pictures! Those colors!! Wow...
ReplyDeleteI have some of those SAME books, by the way!! I knew we were kindred spirits! :)
So happy for you getting away and having some time to just "chill".
Take care!!
Ruth
lovely photos...
ReplyDeleteI have a good friend from high school that is the guitar tech for Steve Miller's band, small world and all.
I hope you have a wonderful time with your parents and your sister. I love being with my sister and there is nothing that I would rather do than run around with her and sharing our thoughts.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe and happy trip.
hugs

Lovely blues! It would be hard to pick one color-I think maybe greens, the colors of plants and nature...so many hues. How nice you can spend some time with your family!
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteYour photography is awesome...love the bleu's...love the ornaments in the bowl. The color does make me think of the ocean, my favorite place to be.
Have a great week, a time to celebrate the closing of one chapter of your life and the start of something new and exciting. Enjoy!

A wonderful song to have stuck in my head! (much better than the theme song from CSI) And to pick one color? That's a tough one. Right now I'm "feeling" BLUE with YOU!

ReplyDeletelaura, you certainly give food for thought. never thought of the idea if i could only see one colorm what color would it be? hmmm, with a little bit of thought, i'd have to say a soft pink. Bestest,Denise
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Blues. Beautifully photographed. I enjoyed this very much.
ReplyDeleteThose two colors are wonderful! Enchanting, just like the sea. I envy your upcoming trip to the beach! Such a wonderous place. ~ Angela
ReplyDeleteI have a pair of pink tinted prescription sun glasses that I love, so I look at the world through "rose colored glasses" :)
ReplyDeleteGreat Question!
Kim
I loved browsing through your blues! Great photos.
ReplyDeleteJane
It looks like my beautiful parisian sky nowadays.
ReplyDeleteI love those grey- blue.
Christian
Love those blues, have a great week regrouping and making your plan. Florence
ReplyDeleteEverything is so beautiful! I look at the first and am pulled to the second but I'm not finished with the first...the pull to the second goes to the third...and again and again...love the colors!
ReplyDeleteHope your getaway is everything you hope for and more!
Have fun!
Thank you!
Sandy
I love this color of blue. The photo's are stunning! WOW, love how you put it together! Happy trip! ~lulu
ReplyDeleteYes...love blue-gray and anything blue! One of my favorite colors. I am in love with those French composition notebooks...where could I ever find some like that? So beautiful! I hope you enjoy your trip and it brings a little yellow sunshine into your day! :) Have fun!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Victoria
I love the color lime green which looks great with blue.
ReplyDeleteRED
ReplyDeleteO I love those blues and the books stacked with the ribbon "very cute".
ReplyDeleteRebecca
cette ambiance bleu gris est belle mais pas si facile à trouver.
ReplyDeletebonne journée
manon
One of my favorite songs!
ReplyDeleteThat color would be the orangy color you see when you sit in the sun and close your eyes. I wish I could say this blue or a tattered powder pink, but I think I couldn't enjoy all of that if I couldn't enjoy the color of the sun.
I want to wish you a great day, but you'll probably have mixed feelings these days, hope the positive feelings prevail.
Gee, I never used to like blue and now I love it.... I love the shades of those books and the ribbon....beautiful! After seeing "Alice" I love it even more!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time on your trip!
Hugs,
Margaret B
Oh my, thats a really difficult question, just one colour? I do love all the different shades of blue in the sea, but I think it would have to be green, a soft, gentle happy green.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photographs, as always. The glass baubles are so precious.
Pink is mine color!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy to visit your parents and sisiter !
Have a great time..............and thinking of the good things of live!
Hugs Ria
So beautifull this pictures, the one with the books woh!!! And i like that colours!
ReplyDeleteBut one colour....... i like to much colours i can't go for one colour.
Have a great time with your famaly
Hugs Marion
For me it would be blue, and it would be the sea! I miss the Atlantic so much - frankly, the sea is always accessible in Britain, and when we moved to the US it was with my dad who was in the navy, so, more sea! The only downside of the south of France is that we're over two hours from either sea. I guess it doesn't sound like much to an American, so I should stop complaining! Have a wonderful time by the sea, Laura.
ReplyDeleteLove all of the colors and I DO love the color of the sea:) I know you are looking forward to you beach trip. It will be a good transition time for you and I know you will enjoy visiting with family.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day my friend!
Love those blue-greys, Laura. Going to the sea and visiting with your family sounds like a wonderful remedy.
ReplyDeleteTo me, nothing makes me feel calmer and happy than to be the sea. I hope you have a happy trip and come back relaxed yet full of excitement and hope till you decide which road in your life to travel next on!
ReplyDeleteOui! j'adore la colours! Bonne journee...
ReplyDeleteStunning photos!
ReplyDeleteDiane
Fantastic photos. I adore the pocket watch against the blue fabric. Stunning. Have a great trip.
ReplyDeleteAnn
Mmmm You sing the blues very well! I'm with you, sister - give me the blues - the faded stormy greys with a wash of blue.... perfection!
ReplyDeleteHave a great trip - the beach is the magical place that the soul always longs for.
xo Isa
Your lovely photos always are such an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThere is so much to love about blue, as it's the color we see the most everyday in our earth's beautiful sky and water.
Enjoy your peaceful time at the sea!

Dear Laura,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your photographs,all are beautiful. The timepiece, the books in that lovely grey/blue, tied up with that beautiful blue ribbon.
What colour would I choose if I could only see one colour ? That's a hard question to answer. I think, maybe,(and don't hold me to this!!), an antique pinky/greyish/ lavendery colour !!!!
Wishing you a wonderful trip, Laura. XXXX
Love it. I collect these old christmas ornaments......love them
ReplyDeleteFly with you......
Your photo's are absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful pictures from different bleu things. Those books are so lovely with the bleu ribbon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
lovely greets Lia
me encanta el color azul ... es precioso!!!
ReplyDeleteFeliz viaje!
Un abrazo, Olga
I guessed that Laura. I understand why!!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors here though.
You will have a lovely visit, and enjoy the warmer weather. You will come back refreshed and ready to do whatever you want.
XO,
Rosemary
My favorite color changes with regularity, but blue always comes out close to or on the top! Love the images you shared with us today..makes me think of summer and the way blues always help me through the hot humid Kansas days...the cooling, soothing pale seaside tones that I love to decorate with that time of year. Right now, I am in love with the pale aqua that is popping up all over design world...it makes me so happy!
ReplyDeleteThat's my favorite color too! Thanks for all that gorgeous eye candy. I hope you enjoy your getaway. I'm hoping to escape to NC in April.
ReplyDeleteIf I could only see one colour it would be in shades of blue..But I would need a splash of orange now and again ;-) Laura - the sea is invigorating, renewing and invigorating. Have a wonderful time - I personally couldn't imagine anything better than what you have planned. Affectueusement; Ange
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhhhhh I just LOVE coming here!!! You always feature so many things that I too find beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time at the beach...lucky duck!

Bon voyage my friend
That is a very pretty post. Thank you for sharing your blues! Have a wonderful trip to the sea!
ReplyDeleteDon't be blue Laura! Sounds like a trip to Florida is exactly what you need!
ReplyDeletexxx..Carole
If I was a color I would be orange! lol
Lovely! I like the blues. I don't think I could pick to see just one color. That would be too sad. I love them all. But when there are sades of the same one that is really lovely!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Lisa
Hi Laura
ReplyDeleteYou must be so looking forward to your trip.. I know I would be... I think you will have the most wonderful time with your sister and co...
Now about that colour choice.... i think my answer would be.....Blue!! hahaha or maybe green... but probably blue!!!! Love that watch!!!! xx Julie
These photos are lovely! My favorite is of the books tied together! Oh, Those colors!
ReplyDeleteHosting a Collections party tomorrow - come on by!
Hi Laura. With all your creativity I doubt you ever stay blue for long...except that that teal-gray-blue is such a pretty color. Spring is almost here. Have a wonderful time "home". XO Trish
