A New Year’s Day Walk…

The first day of the year here in RI was unusually warm…perfect weather for a walk on the beach.  Which is exactly what we did, along with what seemed like the rest of the state’s population…

There is a lot about the exposure of these photos that I am unhappy about…but I’m happy to have started off the year with some of my family and friends at the beach.

It looks like a fun family outing! I also love your new banner.

I recognize the horseshoe crab you found on the beach, but what is the thing that looks like a necklace or a spine?

I believe that is called a Welk. Lovely pictures, lovely walk.

i think they are very special - full of love and beauty. but i do that too, criticize what i've done.

i especially love any with the windbreak fencing in them.

Oliag, these are beautiful, personal pictures. Thank you for sharing them.(I giggle at the one of your fidgety young man, as I remember a family photo in which every adult was grasping at and admonishing my brother, who was in the act of pinching me...)

I especially like the shots of the dune walk.

I love family walks like this and what a wonderful way to start the year. I can almost smell the ocean...wait, that's the Pacific ocean across the street from me!

These are family photo's to treasure.

I love the idea that you live close enough to the beach to take a walk whenever the weather is nice.

Happy New Year!

Look at those eyelashes. Oh, my favorite has got to be the little guy looking down. Happy new year, too, my friend. May it bring you everything you dream of.

WONDERFUL photos! Such a nice way to start the new year, Oliag--family & walking! We took a long walk on New Year's Day too--very refreshing after much holiday festivity and great to start off with some exercise... Now to keep up that exercising... haha! Oh, and take a Hello Kitty bag to the beach next time--I love Kitty too. ;o) Happy Days to you all ((HUGS))

So glad you shared them! Love seeing roses (hips) growing in sand. Happy New Year to you.

Oh, I thought I had left a comment here. The pictures are just amazing. I love the feather one, and of course the kiddo ones. Those are the best.
