A Beachy new year

Today it was a beautiful 57 degrees at the beach...such a blessing after the cold spell we just had. The beach was rather crowded and we even saw some people going into the water! Not me though.

I am not a football fan (even though my alma mater Penn State is playing in a bowl game in Florida where we planned to be today) so I guess I will go in and do a little quilting.

Happy New Year!

Feeling lousy with a cold and the end of a stomach bug...and have practice tonight, so laid low today except to go out and get a room humidifier (which I desperately needed). I'm glad you had a nice outing to the beach!

Happy New Year! I'm not a football fan either, but I still find myself checking the score every few minutes...GO STATE!

Woo hoo.. the beach is always refreshing. But what was the water temp?? Too cold, I'm sure. You were wise to stay on the sand.

I love your beach picture...I live so close to the beach and never go :(

You graduated from Penn? My youngest went there for 2 years and is obsessed with the place. Unfortunately she switched majors and had to transfer to Johnson & Wales in RI. She watched the game on Saturday too!

Thanks for visiting my blog...I have the February mini ready for buttonholing too :)

Quilting sounds like a good alternative to football. It would be my choice too.

What a lovely day your are having weather wise. I attended Penn State the first two years of college.

That beach picture seems so unfair if you live where I do - Kansas! It sounds wonderful, though.
