Michelle O’Neill Volleyball Tournament

My wife Diane and I took a stroll to check out some garage sales in Long Beach this afternoon.

She is the one in the blue shirt and baseball cap. She scored a blender, CD player and some yard decorations for Halloween.

We decided to walk the beach on the way home to check out the volley ball tournament.

September and October are my favorite months here. It is almost like having your own private beach.

The tournament is held each year in memory of Michelle O'Neill: Michelle O’Neill volleyball tourney - Long Beach - LIHerald.com - Nassau County's source for local news, breaking news, sport...

That is Diane taking in the tournament from the boardwalk with her bag of garage sale treasures.

Wedding Anniversary

The last few weeks have been busy and I haven't had the time to blog.

I've been sculpting some new work and making molds. Hopefully I will get around to painting and photographing it this weekend.

Today is our tenth wedding anniversary! We are going for a beach walk this morning.

That is a picture of my wife Diane next to a channel marker that we came across on one of our hikes.

Later we are going to an Amusement park and out for lunch. That is when I'm going to surprise her with a cruise vacation.
