  7. Your layout perfectly suits these soothing colours and this theme! When was I last at the beach? Well, I don't live near one. We camped in August at a provincial park on beautiful Lake Huron, and while it had a coastline, it was very rocky, and not easily accessible for swimming - very rugged. I guess in July I sunbathed on a patch of sand by a small lake at a different provincial park. I'll go with that. :)

    OH...It has been a while since I have went to the beach....probably about 3 or 4 yrs ago while on my visit to CA to see my family. We spent a week there and it is one of the most relaxing places to be. I hope to go again this year.

  23. The beach? We have a cottage on a lake but it does not really have a beach. We were in Florida at Daytona Beach over 3 years ago. That might be the last time.

  24. BEAUTIFUL layout - and gorgeous kit! The last time I went to the beach (I think...) was when we visited Hawaii last year. We moved to Wyoming from Washington State last fall - and my brother and his wife moved to Hawaii at the same time. I'm thinkin' a visit is in order sometime soon!!!

  25. Yesterday. But I didn't go swimming.
    Took my dog for a walk and went to the snow covered beach to see if I could take any interesting photos. Found nothing of interest, though *lol'

  26. I grew up on the coast and spent all my time at the beach. Now I live days away. Last time I was on a beach was a couple years ago in Victoria and it wasn't that warm :). But we have some sandy spots along the rivers up here which we spend lots of time at over the summer.

  54. The last time we visited the beach was for a 5 day backpacking trip...we set up a tent in the sand and stayed for 6 glorious sunrises and 5 sunsets. It was the best vacation I have ever had. We had negative tides with wonderful creatures, bald eagles, and the sound of the waves to keep us company. It was just what my spirit needed. Thanks for the opportunity to share! :) Have a great day!!
