Oregon Gifts of Comfort and Joy: The Online Diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother

Welcome to the online diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother (me) who is busy celebrating the positive portions of her everyday life ... along with her best friend husband (Cary). It is quite an eclectic diary and I try to do my best to incorporate a little bit of history into many of my posts. Your visit to our piece of American Pie is greatly appreciated. This chatty Kathy posts frequently, so coming back to visit often is highly encouraged.

Blue Monday: Ocean Shores Mural Collages

Oregon Gifts of Comfort and Joy ~ Kathy Matthews

I took these pictures last week of a mural painted on the side of a surfing shop in downtown Ocean Shores, Washington. I loved the blues and bright colors, and hope that you enjoy them too. Happy Blue Monday!

This is a Blue Monday post. Blue Monday is hosted by our friend Smiling Sally. Sally's granddaughters have just posted that Sally is still in ICU after her first surgery of a couple of weeks ago. There isn't a Blue Monday meme today, but if here is the link to her blog if you would like to leave her a comment: "Smiling Sally". Please keep Sally in your prayers. Thank you.

Hi Ms. Becky, thank you so much! I really like the last one too, but there is something about the gulls and the minivans that really got me.

Patti, thank you so much. I know what you mean, I almost did go inside, but Cary was done with his phone call, so I hopped back inside the car instead.

Hi Lisa, aren't they? You always choose the right word for us. Thanks so much for stopping by.; June 28, 2011 at 10:25 AM
