Good morning/afternoon/evening (delete as necessary) to you all thank you for finding me on Friday, it's Rocking Your World time, I've had a week where my world has literally been turned upside down but I'm determined to not let that stop me from embracing the positives this week.
I'm going to let the pictures do the talking - I'm grateful for
Blue skies and historical places
Boats and a lighthouse and that gorgeous sea
Victorian buildings and pretty gardens
Little Mummy who bought tea
A pair of beauties dipping their toes
And this young lady who is simply amazing
To a gift from heaven as a tiny set of footprints reminding me that despite how hard everything is being that at times when we only see the one set it is then that we are carried.
To kites soaring above us flapping in that brisk sea air
12 year old's enjoying the simple pleasures in life, the beach
and skimming stones
to Victorian Tramway on the cliffside
That we had to ride on just to say we had!
Better views of the light house
And the millpond sea
To my amazing hubby and gorgeous son
To miniature islands
And gorgeous views in the evening
As the sun sets
To purple flowering alliums
And woven acers
Installation (reinstalled)
Now leaking (intentionally)
And breaking open
To reveal all
So beautiful
Posing for pictures from afar (I don't mind them at this distance)
To gorgeous flowers
And more fantastic views
To crazy pheasants
And more flowering shrubs
Drumming hare that we missed last time we visited
Trough waterfalls
Baby pink rhoddies
Strange sculpture called angle in the garden that reminds me of Alice in Wonderland
Baby moorhens all tucked up on their nests
And chandelier like snakes on the stair well
Trompe L'oeils which are still amazing - the only part of the violin that isn't paint is the door knob that the violin hangs from
Crazy painty art
And texture
Water fountain
Just reaching for the sky
More fabulous views
Of a great day out
Grateful to be alive, to have family that I love and friends that are above and beyond amazing - you know who you are.

You may have had news that turned your world upside down but you managed to have some fun too - these photos are stunning, and I adore the sculpture breaking open. I love the beach pics, can't remember the last time I walked on a sandy beach...
Just had to drop by and say thanks for sharing your amazing photos ...loved them all.

Oh my gosh. Beautiful photos, who needs words!! You can feel Summer is there! :) Love the garden photos, and the beach photos. I have a family of stone skimmers as well (I have managed it once or twice, I am pretty sure my squeals of surprise made it to the UK!!). It really is simple pleasures, and deep sighs. I love seeing your local sights!
