All Things String Beach Picnic 8/29

All Things String (Yahoo and Ravelry group) hosted a picnic at Heisler Park, Laguna Beach this past Saturday.  It was a wonderful, very warm day at the beach over looking the ocean.  My intent was to dive that day, but beaches had been closed the day before due to high surf.  Surf was still in the 2 to 4' range, so I opted to play in the water and surf with fellow Raveler Lemurdillo aka Brenna who came down to join us from Santa Cruz.  I also brought my knitting and Ashford Joy to the picnic, but between swimming, eating, and chatting, I really didn't get a whole lot accomplished!  

Also, those that know me, I LOVE Sea Turtles.  There was a young stud nearby that had an amazing 'Hawaiian' Turtle Tatoo on his back.  I politely asked if I could take a picture of him, and he was more than pleased to obliged.

Here are some pics from the event.  My only regret, is that I didn't get enough ocean shots of this amazing site.



In addition to my knitting and spinning friends, Renata who is the founder of the group, also invited some of her juggling friends to join us as well.  The following pictures are of Renata teaching Gwen's husband how to juggle batons!



.....and last but not least, My Ashford Joy Spinning Wheel with the Pacific Ocean aka Heisler Park behind it.
