Bloubergstrand - beautiful! It's a suburb of CT. In Afrikaans, it means "blue mountain beach".

    These are absolutely beautiful. I love seascapes and lighthouses.  I don't know why but I think a lot of it is cause it reminds me of life in a way.  Thanks, I think you should try framing them.

    Thank you!! Me too! I just love the seascapes! I am going to have it printed and framed soon. My parents and I just moved into our new house so we need a lot of decos so I thought these pics would be perfect! I'm going to watch the Musical Fireworks this Thursday - in celebration of our 50th Independence Day - I will definitely take pics of that too! Can't wait to post them!

    I lived in Ct. back in 1973, I remember how beautiful New England was.  My friends and I would go to Rhode Island to the beaches up there.  It was really nice. I have a painting that was given to me as a present.  It shows a lighthouse standing in the middle of a raging storm.  If you look in the background you can see Christ's hands.  It is very peaceful to look at.  I don't know if you are a spiritual person or not but it really is a beautiful picture.

    Wow! The picture sounds beautiful. I would say I am a spiritual person and I always love looking at pictures that put your mind at ease...

    Hi Gingersoul! Thanks *smile*. You live in Italy?! That's one country I would love to visit! My brother has been there and he loved it. It's either CT or Italy for him. He used to joke with us that he's Italian. He has always been obsessed with Italy so when he got the chance to go, he went for it and came home talking non-stop about it! Thanks for stopping by..
