September 11th 2010, Beach Volleyball, Ray’s Reception & Rick’s

September 12, 2010

September 11th 2010

The beach volleyball season sadly is coming to end.
We hope to play one more (weather permitting) after this weekend.
Today’s tournament was held in Pt Pleasant, NJ –
our “regular” location….

neighbor Denise decided to join today’s beach adventure.
I picked her up at & 7:15 a.m. & she was stuck with us
ALL DAY!

today I was playing with my partner Suzy.
Her husband Michael came later in the day & brought
their three girls.
Edan, Soleil & Nala (all under the age of 5 –
HOW do they do it???)

WE lost in playoffs — waaaaahhh —
we really want to WIN!!!
well…. we have one more chance this season —
weather permitting…..

Michael biked to the beach (102 miles) and here he
is relaxing in the car waiting for Denise & I to
finish in the shower house

I had this guy pose with the fish he just caught in the ocean.

It’s his dinner!!!

Me & Denise all cleaned up after a day at the beach.
My brother Ray had an Artist Reception tonight –
we were heading to Lambertville, NJ (an hour
from the beach) to support him in his venture.

It was really QUITE BUSY & I’m happy to say for Ray’s benefit —

half the exhibit was SOLD…..but obviously still on display….

He can do commissioned work on any custom piece you need.

EVERYONE wanted this table….
one of a kind & totally cool…..

The event was super busy & I didn’t have my “good camera” –

I hope to get back to the gallery & take better
pictures.

Feel free to visit the gallery yourself – in all fairness –

consider yourself warned….you WILL want to buy something……

after the reception we went to our favorite restaurant RICK’S.
Here is Denise with her “date” — the blue cooler….
