Miss Mermaid


I grabbed my camera and headed to town.


How I adore Miss Mermaid atop this old home.

These homes are from waaay back when pirates came to shore...

soooo romantic.... I can imagine Elizabeth Swann in a white flowy dress standing on that balcony

looking towards the water, waiting for Jack Sparrow to come back from the sea.... (sigh)




This is her view...




It's Outdoor Wednesday hosted by the wonderful Susan at a Southern Daydreamer & Waterside Wednesday,hosted by Barbara Jacksier &Watery Wednesday , and hooked on houses.

A little hard to tell, but I think I detect a hint of blue in the ceilings? I love that seaside tradition.

I love your header shot, the perfect beach photo. Love the cute little mermaid. I also love the beach but it takes a full day's drive to find one for me. I have a shot of the Pacific today.

I love the images you selected to share with us today. The weather vane is unique in my experience. She - the mermaid - is perfect for that location. Have a wonderful day.

What a cute little mermaid! I like it that she is kinda plumpish - I mean, compared to Daryl Hannah. Hmmm...we are about 55 minutes from the beach, and the weather is still plenty warm around here - I want to go play!
