Yesterday, Chuck and I took mom to the beach.
The ocean has always brought a sense of comfort and perspective to our family.
We strolled the beaches in Spring Lake, New Jersey.
One of our favorite sea shore towns,
this is a beach mom has never visited!!
this is a beach mom has never visited!!
It was an absolutely gorgeous day.
The sun was shining bright, the temperature, 68 degrees.
68 degrees, in January!!
I think this is a Herring Gull
I have never seen one with dark, almost black wings.
A little wing/flight/water action!!
In some spots the ocean was quiet...
the waves rolled in gently.
This was a hot spot for the sea gulls,
for relaxing and sun bathing.
We threw in a pizza, of course,
what's an outing at the Jersey Shore without a "pie"!!
If you're from Jersey, you never call pizza, pizza,
it's always a pie!!
I hope everyone has a Funday, Sunday"!!

Wonderful images Debbie..
I would love to live on the coast.
What a blessing it must be to live so close to the ocean! These photos are just amazing. Glad you all had such a wonderful day.
These are outstanding! Such beautiful blues and white.
Looks like a relaxing way to spend the day.
These are stunning shots, Debbie. The one of the gull is flight is just perfect! Beautiful water, too.
Another lovely outing Debbie! I long to be by the sea. It's been too many years. Fantastic captures as always!
Thanks for my beach fix you know I love it. Counting down the months until I hit the beach six months ugh.
Beautiful shots!
HI Debbie...Beautiful ...there is nothing like a sunny, blue sky day at the beach !! : }

What beautiful pictures! The water is so blue with the white foam, it's spectacular! Wish I could go there! It must have done your Mom alot of good to get out and see the ocean.
This is the "next best thing" to being at the beach--great photos. We had the 68 degree weather here in Kansas, but the beach and the ocean are just not going to make an appearance! Thanks for a lovely post. Mickie :)
Beautiful views of the beach! I love the seagull pic with the water dripping off of him.
Oh that water looks lovely and blue - almost summery looking.
Hope you mum enjoyed her day!!
Hi Debbie, I love your beach and gulls photos. Great captures. I have not heard of Spring Lake. HUbby and I visited the Jersey shores this weekend also. We went from Avalon up to Barnegat and back to the Edwin Forsythe refuge in Absecom, NJ? Not sure if I spelled that right. I always enjoy a visit to the beaches.
Great photos! I'm all relaxed now. Where's my piece of pie??? :)
The pictures are absolutely beautiful! I'm glad you had a wonderful day at the beach with Mother. Hugs! Bonnie
Beautiful pictures! When I was a kid we used to vacation in Ocean City MD about every other year. Lots of found memories.
Your pictures are amazing. The one with the waves is gorgeous. Glad to see you had a great day out at the beach.
Did you have to drag mom to the beach? :) Gorgeous weather, beautiful shots. xoxo
Glad mom got a do-over! These are great shots! We went to the beach yesterday too - cape cod! Not exactly 68 degrees, but beautiful none the less! My daughter has pics up on fb...should be able to find them on my page. I love the 'deserted' beach shot...so peaceful and powerful at the same time!
