Waves-Waves-Waves

One thing which George and I love when we go to Ocean Isle Beach in North Carolina each year is to sit and listen to the waves as they roar. We even leave our door open during the nights so that we can sleep with that incredible sound in the background. Today, I'm sharing some more of our pictures from the beach ---and this time, we'll share some of the pictures of the waves. Hope you enjoy them.

Aren't the waves just gorgeous?

You can see the fishing pier WAY in the distance!!! See it?

Next to the fishing pier; The sea was angrier this day!

Looking under the pier;

Walking away from the fishing pier;

Hope you enjoyed more of our pictures from Ocean Isle Beach. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't get my dose of the beach at least once a year. George is trying to talk me into going back more often --and I'd love that. BUT---there are so many other places we enjoy going to also!!!!! Oh Well...It's a nice problem to have!!!!

My knee is still very painful --even though I'm on some pain meds... For an active gal like me, this problem is very frustrating. Thanks for your kind words and thoughts.

Hugs,

Our 2010 Irises---Part II

If you didn't see Part I of our Irises, chick HERE. Today I'm sharing the second group of our 2010 Irises in our yard. Above is another of our pretty yellow Irises. This one is named SUMMER OLYMPICS.

This pretty Iris is named ENGLISH CHARM. Isn't it pretty?

Another yellowish one; This one is named WALTZ AROUND TEXAS. I guess it's not the yellow Rose of Texas---but it may be the yellow Iris of Texas!!!!

I love the colors in this Iris. We've had this one for several years. Its name is ELECTRIC SHOCK.

This Iris is named HALLOWEEN HALO. (Wonder where they come up with all of the names???? I promise you that I'm not making them up!!!!)

All of our yellow Irises are different, one from another!!!! This one is named HARVEST OF MEMORIES.

I grew up with ALL purple Irises... My mother had a huge bed along the bank --and there were tons of the purple Irises there. This one is named STELLAR LIGHTS.

Here's one more yellow one... Its name is LEMON REFLECTION. All of our five yellow Irises are different--one from another! They are all unique and special--each in its own way!

I love this 'curly' Iris. Its name is ORANGE HARVEST.

Well---that's it!!!!! Hope I haven't bored you to death with all of our Iris varieties. I'm sure I'll do the same thing when our Lilies and Daylilies bloom ---along with all of our beautiful Roses.

Sorry I haven't visited all of your blogs the past couple of days. I spent yesterday in the doctor's office getting my left knee X-rayed . I have been experiencing ALOT of pain the past week or two, so I decided it was time to get myself to the doctor. I will get around to your blogs as I am able.

Hugs,
