The PSC 50 Gals, Part Deux

I am going to post up more pictures from the girls' weekend. The ocean was beautiful, active and the wind typically New England biting wind. There were shells to be picked up at Moody and items to just look at, most notably things like gulls and a partially devoured crab shell.

There are so many things to see! For instance, the gull in the picture to the left. And here's a picture you might recognize - an open shell.

The ocean offered a lot of beautiful sites. I have foliage pictures, too, but those can wait, perhaps for winter when a little color makes the day a bit brighter. These pictures represent just a touch of the wonderful nature I was blessed to share with my dear college friends. How lucky can one girl get? Pretty darn, if you ask me.

The PSC 50 Gals

Well, the gals who turned 50 this year from PSC (Plymouth State College - old name) spent a wonderful time together! There were 4 of us - me, Jeannie (Matott) Whitcomb, Bev Hart and Sherry (Torsey) Boynton.

Sherry reserved rooms for us at a motel and off we went, beachward bound. We walked the Marginal Way and I, the youngest of the group, couldn't go more than half way thanks to a terrible head cold. But I took pictures! A dinner of pizza and staying up late to drink champagne in beautiful glasses provided by Bev and chatting... oh my! Just like the old days!

The next day we walked the beach at Moody, collected shells and took pictures. I will try to put some of them here. At the top of the post is a picture of the four of us. Jeannie, Bev, me and Sherry. Now let's see if I can post a few other pictures, maybe of the water, maybe of us. If not, another post. :)

This is the Nubble light. It is one of my favorite places. Bev had never been so of course we had to go!

The picture below is one of the ocean pictures I took. We took a walk along Marginal Way and managed to do quite a bit before old sick me petered out. :)

I will post other pictures later. Just know that this was a fabulous time for me! I cannot think of a better way to have spent turning 50 than with my mom and brother and a girls' weekend at the beach with such wonderful friends! Thank you for making it very, very special! I love you very much!

Turning 50

My twin brother Dennis says age is just a number and therefore turning 50 didn't really bother him. I can understand that.

He came to California for 4 days and stayed at the very lovely duplex which I rent. He helped me with a very large cumbersome family project but it was very much worth the effort. We took all the old family videos I had on videotape, including the old 8mm movies my dad had taken all while we were growing up and had transferred to video tape, and transferred them to DVD. The vcr/dvr deck was a birthday present to myself. While in New Hampshire I also purchased a DVR external drive to attach to my computer. A present from my mom.

I just returned from a week in New Hampshire with my mom and brother. Unfortunately I was sick the entire time. I am still sick but not as bad. I am spending today trying to catch up on all the mundane things I need to do plus my blogs.

Here are a few pictures. The one on the left is Den in my backyard. The other is a picture of us with Mom.
