I Can see clearly now.

I had a whole different post in mind for this week, But had to switch it up at the last minute. 
After all the fog we had last week, I thought it would be the
perfect topic for this week's challenge over at 


The song title this week is 
"I can see clearly now" 

We have had no rain since the first week we were here in Imperial Beach.
But we did get some pretty heavy fog.  Lots of it.


 Taken with my iphone

It was so crazy how fast this fog came in.  When we first started
off on our walk down to the beach it was perfectly clear.  But blocks before we got
to the ocean you could see the fog rolling in.  And by the time we made it down there
it was so thick we could barely see 20 feet in front of us.

I know what you are thinking.  So what's a little bit of fog. 
Me being from Las Vegas we didn't get to see fog very often.
So it is a kinda cool for me to see it.  As long as I don't have to drive in it. 




The last couple of days we have had no more fog.

So as the song goes, 
"I can see clearly now the FOG is gone."
or something like that.  LOL.. 



This lady on the bike was collecting seashells.
I was a little bit nervous about taking her photo because she kept looking up at me,
But I could have always said I was snapping a photo of the pier.  Right...



And Over at

OUR BEAUTIFUL WORLD

It's all about Color.
I'm sharing some photos of when we were in Austin, Texas.
Once again I do believe it is perfect for the Prompt.




This is called the Baylor Street Art Wall.
But there is way more than just a wall. Graffiti is everywhere or Art or both. lol



It was an old building that had never finished being built.
And the Art begins. 



Some of it is really good.



I had to climb up to get to this sign.

BE HAPPY!



It was a bit scary getting up to it. But I was up for the challenge.
We heard on the news that they were closing this down due to the traffic.
It is right in the middle of a neighborhood and has become a real headache
for the people living in that neighborhood.
I totally get that..


Well that's all for now my friends.

Here is the Links to the Meme's I'm playing along with.

Hello Friends

How are you all doing?

We are still here in the San Diego area of California,
for those of you who know the area we are in Imperial Beach.
The most southwest you can get in the states.
The best thing about being here this time of the year is the weather.




No shortage of finding things in Bloom in this part of the country.




The hardest part is to grab a shot that's doesn't have a
bit of a blur in.  That's due to the Ocean breeze. 




I do love that bit of moisture that is always in the air.




Life since we got here has been anything but ordinary.
It's a pretty laid back atmosphere here.  
Which I could get totally used to.




I haven't gotten much of anything done.
You think I would have finished a book or a knitting project by now.
Maybe a little bit of baking.  Heck I haven't even taken too many photos. 
We spend our days combing the beach and enjoying the fresh air.
Taking hikes and going to bed way to early.



These last two shots were taken from my cell phone from a Hike we
did yesterday.  The hike was recommended to me by an Instag,ram friend.
And I have to say it did not disappoint.  The end of the hike was here at the Ocean.

So friends, we are only here for 3 more weeks so you know where you can find me.

I wanted to say THANKS YOU to everyone
for all your kind comments from my last post. 
You guys are the best. 

Till next time.
