Tea Stands for Tuesday - 10/11/16

Good morning friends.  I've missed a couple of tea parties and I'm happy to be able to join the group today.



We decided on kind of the spur of the moment that we needed some time away.  Some time without electronics.  Some time where someone else would make the coffee or the tea in this case.  We packed, locked the doors and off we went.



What better place to relax and regroup than at the beach.  


This particular beach is about half way between San Francisco and Los Angeles.  Most of time time it was just as you see it here.  Empty.  October is often the best month to visit California beaches in my opinion.  The weather is usually warm enough (this time in the low 80s) and the summer crowds are gone.

Now it is time to visit Elizabeth's blog and catch up with everyone who is having tea this Tuesday.  Won't you join me?

  3. If I had to guess, I would say you were at Avila and Port San Louis.....if not, then they look identical...LOL!
    Yes, October is a good time to head to the beach! Off season is always the best..........unless you have your grandkids with you...*grin*
    Happy T-day

  6. I have NO idea why people think summer is the time to visit the west coast. It's hot, muggy, smoggy, fire ridden, and overcrowded. I've always thought Christmas was basically the same, with rains and erosions.

    That beach looks very inviting. And it is always great when someone else serves you tea (or coffee), isn't it?

    Thanks for taking us to the beach with you this week, and we are SO glad you are back with us again. But of course, we are delighted you had a great getaway, too.

  9. The beach is always the perfect place for rejuvenation, especially at those times of the year when the crowds are gone.

  11. What a lovely beach. And it is empty too. I love the beach when it is not crowded. We hardly ever go to the beach (and there are some beautiful beaches in southern Spain) as they are just too busy. So, good for you for getting away and relax a bit. It looks like the perfect place.
    Happy T-Day,
    Have a good week,
    Blessings,
    Lisca
