Visit to Swami's This Afternoon

I am not going to write much because I am sleepy. But, today I had a nice time with my sweetheart walking around at the beach called Swami's in Encinitas, Ca.

Below are some pictures I took and edited today.

Sea Port Village and Coronado

Earlier this week my friend Jessica suggested that she and I should drive down to San Diego, walk around and explore new locations. I don't do this as often as I would like too but, yesterday we went. As we wandered, of course I snapped several photos.

My favorte pictures were taken from the sand, looking out into the sunset, in front of Hotel Del Coronado. A beautiful historic hotel opened in 1888.

Our short adventure started by parking her car in the parking lot of Horton Plaza. A fabulous place to shop, if you aren't a "starving artist". Since, neither of us have much spending money we kept away from the shops and only ventured there to validate our parking ticket.

Jessica wanted to walk down to Sea Port Village and take some photos of the boats and near surroundings. Unfortunately, neither of us knew or realized ahead of time, that the docks were private. So, I was left feeling less inspired.

We continued to walk back to her car. The more we walked around, the hungrier I became. The Gaslamp area of San Diego is filled with restaurants and little shops. Both too tempting. We still had about an hour left of the sun so, we got back into the car and went across the Coronado bridge. Ending at the beachfront to finish our short, photographic adventure.

Romantic Beach Photo Shoot

Here are more photos from the "Trash the Dress" photo shoot I did in Torrey Pines. Torrey Pines is a spectacular area of Southern California. The "models" here are actually a newly married couple. The bride was a former co-worker of mine and she's a sweetheart. I look forward to doing more shoots like this one. I had a blast!

Having a Sunburn Isn't Fun

Last Monday I didn't have to work until 4:30, I realized it'd be a great opportunity to make it my first beach day of the year. Once I got down to the sand it was perfect. Stupid me, I decided that I would put some sunscreen on later. Well, later went by and I forgot. I went to work as a lobster. I have been babying my sunburned body this entire week and it's still red hot and itchy.

I've been wanting to put pictures up of some of my favorite outfits but, they are on hold until I'm less crimson.

An update on my home projects; they are coming along slowly but surely. I will be putting some pictures of my "new" room soon.

In the mean time, here are some new items I have added to my Etsy store.
