A Hawaiian Beach walk

Saturday, May 17, 2008
This time of year gets really hectic and not much beach walking is getting accomplished. Today I had a end of school year training class on using technology in the classroom, how apropo is that?

Earlier in the week I found a really cool website that I'm going to keep my eye on. Beachwalk with Rox at first seems to be a commericial site because she is promoting herself as a motivational speaker (and successful podcaster, blogger) BUT what a fun way to do it. Every couple of days she, her dog, Lexi, and her husband, the Secret cameraman, put together a video podcast of Roxanne discussing something as she walks on a beach in Hawaii. Interesting topics, beautiful scenery and what an inspiration! If you love dogs, you'll really like Lexi.

Roxanne says, "...most every day that I am here in Hawaii, I go to the beach to walk and swim with our dog Lexi, and Secret Cameraman comes along so we can share it with you. (Other days I am on the road or we do something special here in Hawaii!) We've had over 2 million downloads and have some of the smartest and kindest people in the world watching our show - which was started by accident, by the way!"

They also have a blog at barefeetstudios.com, which I have yet to investigate.

Don't spend too much time on line, you here? And do let me know what you think about "A Walk On the Beach".

As neighbor Wallace says, "It's better to live life than write about it."

Section: To the beach and return...I did ride my bike to Fort Pierce North bridge and back, swimming in the pool.
Water temperature: 74
UV: 10 at noon
Wind: From the South
Tide: Working toward high
Time: Boardwalk time, before sunset
Length: 1/2 hour at the boardwalk/beach, 10 miles on the bike
Marine animals: none, but the mosquitos are out and so were the no-see-ums
People: Neighbors are Great!
Beach litter: very little

So, when are you going to write that book, Missus Robinson? (bg)

Sorry to slack on commenting. I have to recall how to add you to my friends list on my blog.
Geeez- your blog is so much prettier looking than mine!

Well, this is the book...on-line...and in progress...

Thank you for loving my pretty photos, DRJeeeol. Your content is more interesting than mine...I'm not sure I would call mine "refined" but when I see the true definition: (having or showing well-bred feeling, taste, etc., freed or free from coarseness, vulgarity, freed from impurities, very subtle, precise, or exact) I just hope it's not too boring.

How'd you like Roxie's blog?

The content of your blogs is far from boring (being refind can be construed as classy). In fact, I find it inspiring (and I love the pictures). Moving forward to "Sunrise on the Beach," I am dying to see the sorta, kinda video. Have you gotten it to work?
