I usually post a picture or a video of a waterfall on Wednesdays. The beauty and serenity that waterfalls create is undeniable. But today I was looking back on this little video of the Gulf of Mexico. Early morning, on the beach right after a pretty good storm at daybreak. The beauty and power of the ocean 🌊 is also undeniable…
Have a good night! 🌙

I usually share a Waterfall but this runs a close second in the ability to relax and allow me to zone out and embrace nothingness…
The Gulf of Mexico with not another human being in sight 👁 Priceless!
Have a great night!

As I was sitting this morning writing My blog, my phone chirped… Text message. It was my cousin Kim. She lives along the gulf coast not too far from where the approaching Hurricane Ida is coming ashore. Outer bands of rain are already creating localized flash flooding and the winds are strong. She said they are going to ride it out, told me she loved me and asked for prayers 🙏🏻
Hurricanes bring heavy wind and floods so they are always a threat. But my cousin Kim and her brothers and sisters grew up down there and they have rode out many a storm.
So today I’m gonna say a special prayer for Kim and all the folks down on the Gulf Coast. Ida is coming and she’s bringing a mess with her 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your welcome to join me in saying a prayer for all the good folks down there as well 🙏🏻

Have a great Sunday afternoon ☀️

I simply Love the sound of a Waterfall! So relaxing, so soothing… Here’s my next favorite Water sound. Even on a gloomy, stormy day it will relax your mind. Pull up a lounge chair and listen to this👇🏻
I could lay down there on a lounge chair and drift off in a moment… Zen bliss 🌊
Have a great Monday!

Being in a seasonal business like I am, I have learned to take our time off during the slow season. In other words, Winter… January usually finds me on a beach somewhere down On the Gulf Coast. I was looking through some pictures of vacations past and came across this one of my son and I standing on a beach together. The funny thing to me was, I remember the exact time and day it was taken. I remember the conversation we were having. I remember where we went for dinner that evening. Many times putting a Picture with a memory brings it all together and Boom 💥 You actually remember that moment and get to almost relive it. Maybe that’s why I enjoy #throwbackthursdsy so much.
Enjoy your day! Throwback Thursday sometimes let’s you glance back for a moment, to gain clarity on what to look forward to again…

Here’s my last Sunrise over the Gulf… What a calm & perfect morning! The water was so calm it was like a pond almost. So many people got their smaller boats out in the Gulf on this day! It was unbelievable seeing small fishing boats fishing up and down the beach. Awesome 🌞
What a beautiful, Zen like feeling you get from watching the Sunrise ❤️ Especially over the water or combined with the sound of a Waterfall! Enjoy your day.
Enjoy this beautiful day!

What a beautiful morning! This picture says it all – a Beautiful sunrise under a bank of invading clouds. The rain is coming, but not before the Sunrise. No longer than I got my picture, the rain got here. Feels like Spring 😊
The cloud bank was almost all the way in, but the Sunrise beat it! So beautiful. Behind me, the rain was coming.
Enjoy your day ❤️

I don’t know about you, but I Love the Gulf! There isn’t many places where you can relax like you can at the beach. The wind, the waves, the sand… Very Zen 😎
Enjoy the sun ☀️ and a little ‘Sound Therapy’
Gulf Coast Zen …
I hope this brings a little relaxation and ease to your morning 😊

I personally love this short video. I was the only person on the beach as far as you can see, the water was warm and the waves were gentle. What a perfect sunrise! 🌞 I hope it brings a little Zen to your Monday!
