Pallets of colors:
Painted in a spectrum of colors on houses
Patterned on fences
Highlighted on eaves and lattice
Punched on porches
Dappled on store fronts

Long empty beaches speckled with only a few vacationers also has its share of color.
Here and there among the warm sand and breaking s
urf the unexpected colors of:
pink star-topped umbrellas
smooth orange rocks gathered in my scarf
russet colored oak leaves and green sea glass
and stained rimmed sea posts in iridescent green.

Being in Cape May equals:
never attempting to even pick up the room we are staying in
reading on the beach
collecting stones and shells {every year I chose a color to scan for as we walk the beach...this year's model was orange in honor of October}
finding new cafes and restaurants to spend way to much money and have leisurely conversations at
After a cloudy cool Saturday the setting sun streaked out of dark stubborn clouds that kept us in jeans and long sleeves all day as we shopped and ate like tourists, Mr.MS says:
"For one day a year we have a pocketful of cash to spend on ourselves...then tomorrow comes"
I felt like I was receiving a gift from the sky as we picked our way, shoe-less, toward the shore and the poking sun rays turned into a glorious sunset. I have never seen orange turn to red turn to pink turn to dark purple turn to gray-blue so quickly, so beautiful.
Everyone on the beach and promenade turned photographer.
"i love this guy"
AND
"why in the sam hell did no one tell me i had that many laugh lines"
Heres to marriage time outs
spending way too much money on eating out and alcohol
and sand in the toes
Cheers
