Island time...................

The garden beneath out balcony at Surf Watch.
Hi gang...................
The meeting in Savannah was wonderful and I believe a good time was had by one and all.
I've started to share some pix from our 5 day event over on the QCI Blog so head over there to hear all about it.

Mr B doing a bit of bird watching overlooking the marsh.
Mr B & I arrived on Hilton Head Island on Thursday afternoon and we are starting to wind down nicely and enjoy some well earned R&R (even if I do say so myself!).

The weather is glorious, bright sunshine & blue skies.
We've enjoyed a couple of early morning beach walks, where we met up with this bunch of doggie pals. (Can you tell I'm missing Mr Ben?)

Linking to Shadow Shot Sunday #128, at Hey Harriet's place this weekend, bye y'all.

How wonderful to be in Hilton Head. I have always heard it was a great place to go. Enjoy yourself. It's cold back on the continent.

The doggies are excited to romp with their owners in the South Carolina lowlands and shore. The beauty is stunning near the sea, the temperatures perfect now (not too hot), so R&R is the order of the day!

Hello, just popped in from Hey Harriet's linkup. Shadows everywhere - I can almost feel the fresh air and feel the wet sand underfoot!

Thinking of you and picturing the sunny beaches, soft winds and mint julips or whatever the drink of choice is on HH. Have a great time. xo Jenny
