I thought these would be a great entry for Scenic Sunday. I took these last summer at the Santa Monica Pier here in Southern California.

"To me there is nothing more peaceful that standing on the beach listening to the waves and feeling the sea breeze in your face."

I did this when I was young in one of the hometown we lived. I love your description here.

Your pictures just remind me of my younger days. So using my imagination, I'm turning the clock back to reminisce those wonderful innocent days.

The hot springs of Baden near Vienna were already known to the Romans,
and Baden is a health resort still today.

Awesome, breathtaking, wholesome and interesting Maria!

You do know how to solve problems, Maria. I'm happy to see all these beautiful things around Austria.

Thank you!

Springtime Moments & Happy Mother's Day!

"Spring makes all things look fresh and new; a rebirth of what has been dead; a resurrection of what has been gone."~lcd,11th May 2009

This is the apparent theme of your post without question. A happy farm with a red-painted barn framed inside an idyllic setting.

This is a place in East Brighton where we walk regularly. It's on the edge of the South Downs with the English Channel in the distance.

This must be my maiden comment post to your blog.

Your picture is calm and pleasing. Your idyllic land is not like ours where they're mostly rocky, stony and unarable.

I love those wild flowers and the greens, the enviable greens.

If that is Georgie, I bet she is enjoying her doggy stroll.

Happy Mother's Day to you, if you are one. If not, maybe you can shout it to your Mom.


Cheers!

Kitty of Into My Own took this shot Tollymore Forest, Northern Ireland. It is this week's Scenic Sunday post.

This setting reminds me of something as if a place like this is a habitat of the famous "northerly fairies" found in the story book.

I love the beautiful nature of Ireland. Their green scenery all year round is too enviable!

Lovely photo that spruce up my day. Happy Mother's Day to you Kitty.

This is the very eastern edge of the forest - here we can stand on an old ruined cairn and look out from between the trees to the Mourne Mountains, covered in a heavy mist that's slowly sinking down the hillsides:

Magnificent work of arts by nature Kitty. A place ideal for meditation and relaxation away from stressful life. Like I said, their beauty is enviable. Very pretty indeed!
