A flock of seashell fairies

My visit to St. Augustine was better than I even hoped it would be.

The weather was pretty dang bad the first couple of days.

And chilly after about 48 hours of thunderstorms.

So we didn't get to do the things we planned.

Hmm, not sounding great, huh? 

Oh, but it was!!  I met up with friends from childhood and beyond, they are lifetime friends that I rarely get to see.  We made the most of the weather, wrapped ourselves in warm quilts, drank some wine, and enjoyed the view of the storms across the ocean. 

We also enjoyed our never ending conversations that started when we met at the airport and flowed non-stop til I rolled my bag out to the car to leave.

It wasn't what we were doing, it was who we were doing it with that counted.

Although, we did manage to get a lot of fun activities going despite the weather.

When the sun finally came back out, we had LONG walks on the beach and hunted seaglass.

I'll leave you with a few photos of the 180 Years of Celebration trip.  (all three of us were having our 60th birthdays, one in February, two in May)
