Breathe -- Just Breathe

At least that's what I keep telling myself.  Why does the time fly by faster than the things you need to finish before it's done?

"Every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving." --  Albert Einstein  (1879 - 1955)

Work Weeks are Over-rated

"The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy - I mean that if you are happy you will be good." --   Bertrand Russell   (1872 - 1970)

The Bird That Laughed at Me

The sky and water at Galveston have never been bluer than they were on Saturday.  

"When I was young, my ambition was to be one of the people who made a difference in this world. My hope still is to leave the world a little bit better for my having been here. It's a wonderful life and I love it." --   Jim Henson, It's Not Easy Being Green And Other Things to Consider

How High's the Water? 

My friend, Lori, demonstrates how deep the water was on Galveston's Strand after Hurricane Ike.  It's been right at 11 months since the  storm devastated the entire island and much of the Houston area  as well.  We were amazed to see how much work has been done and how many businesses are open and ready for visitors.  We had a wonderful getaway weekend.  

"Those who don't know how to weep with their whole heart, don't know how to laugh either." --    Golda Meir ,   Israeli (Russian-born) politician (1898 - 1979)

We happened upon a watermelon and banana eating competition at the beach this weekend.  A nice sized crowd gathered to watch, but it took some time and effort to recruit four people with enough spirit to take the challenge.  The young man closest to the camera won.  His prize . . . McDonald's Gift Cards.  

"The prospect of a long day at the beach makes me panic.  There is no harder work than taking myself off to somewhere pleasant, where I am forced to stay for hours and have fun."  Phillip Lopate

Oh, to be back down at the beach.

The birds hanging out around this sign reminded me of a group of Vegas show girls  waiting for their act to begin.

The sign is very pale and faded,  which added to its charm but also made it a little bland for photographing.  I played around a little with the adjustment layers to get this effect.  Open to additional suggestions.
