Hip Hip Hoo-ray! It's time for BLUE MONDAY Graciously hosted by Sally @ Smiling Sally.
After your visit here, be sure to swing by her place and check out all the blue beauties :0)
This is a vintage postcard, dated from the 40s. It is from Cape Cod. The message on the back reads of a lady sending greetings and making mention that as the holiday approaches her rooms will once again be "filled".
I must be in a sea-side kind of mood. This was taken this past August on the Central Coast of California while hubbs and I were on a vacation. Nothing can compare to the "hues" of blue Mother Nature invokes.
This was taken the very same day, but about an hour later into the afternoon/evening. Same camera but you can see how the hues have changed. I've always thought the changes of the hues in the sky and water are brought about by a bit of magic...The sky is a much deeper blue and the ocean water seems more navy.
Remember that half the joy of achievement is in the anticipation.

Beautiful, beautiful blue waters.

The vintage postcard with its message is special, but even more special is God's handiwork. Happy Blue Monday!
Nature's blues are always beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Happy Blue Monday!
I could look at the water forever. Great photos!
You could almost fool anybody--in the last shot the sand looks like snow because of the changing light conditions. More pictures, please!!
All I can say is WOW! That water and that sky are breathtaking!
Oh, and I love that you call your husband "Hubbs." Very fun!
It's amazing the difference between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans - each beautiful in its own way. Cape Cod is my very favorite vacation spot. Happy Blue Monday.
