WHAT DO YOU THINK??

YES, we live at the beach, YES we are retired, but...and who doesn't like a beverage while watching a magnificent sunset? ...But, the clock...??
We were recently in a HOME GOODS store and Sean was like a kid at christmas... "look at this!! ooooh look at this!! oh we HAVE to get this!!" He found this clock at the end of an aisle underneath another that was all banged up, and in a broken box. He said, "I don't care if this works or not we ARE DEFINITELY GETTING THIS!" Lo and behold add 1 AA battery and it worked!! Now where do I put this freaking thing?? Any ideas? Let me know!

CAMUY CAVES

Within an hour or so from our house are a tons of really cool places to see and visit that make you see past all the magnificient beaches and oceans that cover all shades of blue.

We recently took a day trip to the Camuy Caves about an hour and a half northeast of us. Stalagmites and stalagtites was not really my favorite earth science subject but it was by far the wildest cave I've ever been in!! And, strangely enough believe it or not, I have been in a few! I have never been so amazed by the natural beauty, and, the enormity.

Here is a picture walking down to the entrance (sorry cell phone picture). it looks small, but the opening is over 160 feet high!!

Below is a natural column and formation that is smaller but, likens to the world famous AYERS ROCK in Australia, on a smaller scale.
I believe the picture below needs no words....except on your next trip to PR make sure this is on your "TO DO" list!

BEFORE & AFTER

Recently, Sean and I went to the beach, which we try and do at least for an hour everyday! Take a swim in the ocean, take a walk, look for sea glass, or watch the sunset...Not to mention, my favorite thing, take a cat nap!! This is what happened the last time I woke up from one of my cat naps...This is before...(I fell asleep) and this is after (I woke up)....

hmmm...or perhaps the sun just got to me!! You can see the similarities, no??
