Sea Adventures

Hi everyone.  Happy weekend to you. 

 I'm posting on Saturday since the weather doesn't look to be as nice today as it does tomorrow (Sunday). That means this weekend Sunday will most likely, weather dependent, be a boating day. There aren't too many weeks left before it just gets too chilly to be out on the water. It's really only about a month until it's time to start thinking of putting the boat away for the winter. Not, thankfully, that winter will be here that soon. Or at least I hope not. 😁

Here's another page for Art Journal Journey. This month you probably know Chris is hosting, and her theme is Where in the World.

Since August wraps up on Thursday, you still have a few days to join us, and we'd love it if you did. :) In this post I'm taking you for a boat trip on whatever body of water you'd like it to be. 

I made my page with a couple of stamps, a couple of sheets of printed paper, some ink pads, a stencil and some blue stencil paste.  Then I finished it off for a few assorted sequins.

All the images are cut out of the printed paper and layered onto my stamped and inked background.  After stamping the quotes, I finished my page by adding the stenciled corner images.

Most of this year's boating photos are still on my camera, but here's a few from early in the season. (Back in early/mid June)

Maddie and Pete really wanted to snack on my mackerel.

The old military prison at the Navy Shipyard. It's spooky enough in the sunlight, and  it's really spooky in the fog. (I'll show you photos of it once I unload my camera. There are missing windows, boarded up windows, some windows still have bars, and there are trees growing off the roof. What a waste of a big old building.

Here's a giant flock of Canada geese.

This next photo isn't very clear, but I think maybe it's a loon not quite in its summer plumage. These photos are from earlier in June.

The rocking boat lulled Maddie to sleep.

The hubby's first fish of the season. It was too small to keep, and he would have tossed it back anyhow.

This year there are so many cranes at the Naval Shipyard.  That must mean they are busy with projects, which is great for the local economy. They looked interesting in the fog.

And lastly,here's a lot of buoys for lobster pots on  the end of one of the commercial docks we powered by.

 This fisherman's color must be solid yellow or perhaps solid white.

That's all for me. Have a great weekend!
