Beautiful.
Grazie mille Timothy დ
My hometown too. wish I was there!
Let’s beam each other over. I’d love to be in the Tetons right now! დ
It’s pretty beautiful right now. We have too many summer tourists anymore. I’m ready for the beach!
I used to go in summer to Jackson Hole as a child. I remember riding horses across the Snake River and being chased by cattle. I remember ski trips in college and grad school, driving from La Jolla to Jackson Hole, and being introduced to wind chill -50F. I remember when the wolves would howl me to sleep as a child in the summer. It was so comforting. დ
I remember my grandma taking us to lunch at the Hotel Del. We took the ferry over. I remember my grandma lamenting the Coronado Bay bridge when it was built. We could see it from our house.I remember weekends on the beach.
My grandfather took us regularly to brunch and dinner at The Del by ferry! It was great fun. They kept the ferry operating for several years after the bridge was built, so you could still ride over. They have boats now, but they are not the same. We have synchronistic memories Jean.
What a stunning home town! Wow! Between the sky and the ocean, I can’t say which is more stunning.
Oceans and sunsets, the world over, are stunning to behold. Hope all is well with you Marlene დ
Doing well here, Cindy. Just buried in summer chores and activities right now. Hopefully by later this month, I’ll get a breather.
It’s good to be busy, and then good to rest. Only the best to you Marlene დ
Sublime … thank you for taking us there Cindy 💕🙏💕
I loved sharing it with you Val დ
Mother Nature’s showing off for you! 😘 Have a wonderful Sunday, Cindy!
She is so nice that way and does it for all of us, bless Her <3. Cheers to you Teresa დ
I’ve actually been here..and I forgot. My husbands brother treated us back in the 80’s. We’ve not returned to that area of California. What lovely photos.
I am glad the photos jogged your memories. I love it when that happens & thank you! დ
The earth brings us poetry in moments. And you, my dear friend, are able to capture the words in poetry. Sending hugs!
Aww…… sending hugs and gratitude back to you Rebecca დ
Your photos create a wonderful calming atmosphere, I like them very much. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful week, Marie
Your comment makes me happy. Thank you very much Marie & cheers to you დ
What beautiful pictures! You live in an amazing area.
Thanks much my friend. I have learned that every area has it’s own unique beauty დ
Molto belli gli ingrandimenti. Non conosco questa tecnica applicata a word press. Come si fa?
Vi ringrazio molto! Così apprezzato. WordPress ha una funzione integrata che consente agli spettatori di ingrandire le foto facendo clic su di esse. Se hai problemi a farlo, invierò un’e-mail agli ingegneri di wordpress per chiedere aiuto o google come farlo. Ci sono molti tutorial online. Spero che aiuti. Ciao! დ
Grazie Cindy, farò delle prove. Il nuovo editor di word press e la possibilità di inserire immagini e video ancora non lo gestisco bene. Penso che quando avrò imparato il sistema diventerà vecchio e sostituito 😉
Tendo a evitare di leggere le istruzioni e mi limito a giocherellare con le cose finché non lo capisco. Le istruzioni mi infastidiscono. Non c’è metodo per la mia follia ti auguro buona fortuna e ho fiducia in te!!! 🙂 🙂
Gorgeous pictures as always, Cindy.
Awww, thanks so much Cynthia & cheers to you my friend დ
You are spoilt dear lady, how do you struggle with waking up each day to this beautiful place 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋 😂 🤣
Smiling. Thank you Mark. I have found in my life and travels that there is beauty everywhere! დ
Such a beautiful spot and pics highlighting your wonderful home town Cindy💖
So thoughtful. Thank you Cindy! დ
Most welcome💖❣️
Such beauty – lucky you! 🙂 <3
Smiling…. U2X2! დ
It’s lovely there Cindy, what a wonderful place to come from.
Leslie xoxo
It was especially nice when I grew up there, before the crowds and development arrived დ
Really really beautiful!
Honored. Thank you დ
🙂
Sunset colors, reminder that there is beauty in the end. (that is a blog right there!)
It certainly is. There is beauty everywhere დ
Just gorgeous, Cindy!!
So pleased you enjoyed & much appreciated! დ
What a beautiful sunset!!
Thanks much Liz. I have been missing your posts. For some reason, they are not appearing in my reader! დ
Great stuff. We have a house about 6 miles from those photos.
Oh my gosh! Are you in La Jolla or Del Mar? So many bloggers are saying they are from here. What a small world დ
Cheers to you, too, Cindy. Fine shots
Thank you very much Phillip დ
Beautiful places around your hometown in Southern California. Dear friend, I wish you a merry and happy time.
I hope you are staying hale, healthy and hearty Ernst. It is nice to talk to you in English for a change! დ
I like the sunsets you captured near the ocean, especially the ones with the dark trees silhouetted against the evening sky.
I am so glad you do and thank you very much Peter დ
Beautiful scenario! Cindy! It looks like you missed the flights a lot. 🙂
I definitely am missing the travel, but not the flights! 😉
Actually, it is exactly what I meant. Wrong delivery of my thoughts, sorry.
You are a wonderful person to know Alexander. დ
Cindy, I am sorry. I looked through my comments and I’m not sure if I conveyed the meaning of my thoughts correctly. I’m afraid I need to stop commenting because I might offend someone.
As one poet said: “If you cannot find right words, it is very dangerous to express your thoughts.”
You don’t offend me. I know you. Please continue to talk. It is very easy to misunderstand each what each other means in this virtual world. I know this. But, honestly, it is even easier to not listen, hear or see, or understand each other, in the ‘real’ world!! Please keep commenting. I will do the same, and we will figure it out დ
Thank you for gorgeous view of your hometown.
Thank you more for such lovel sentiments Jennie & cheers დ
You’re welcome! 💕
დდ
Gorgeous images and place to call home Cindy! 😍
Thanks Brad & cheers to you my friend დ
🙏
Very lovely views!
Thank you. Wonderful to hear from you. Hope all is well with you დ
Torrey Pines is such a beautiful place! How blessed you are to have grown up there! I grew up on an eastern coast that’s also beautiful, but has sunrises instead of sunsets!
Oh, yes, myy parents lived for a long while in Dover New Hampshire and I know how beautiful the east coast is. დ
