Can you believe it’s finally the weekend? My, what a long, pollinated week it has been. And once again on a Friday evening, I’m full up to my eyeballs from eating chips, salsa, and fajitas with GR, Phoo, and Big H. We even had ice cream afterwards. That we ate in the the car whilst complaining about the aches, pains, and lack of romance in our lives. There’s nothing quite like commiserating about life over a double-chocolate chunk cone.
Anyhow, today is Saturday Photo Hunters day, and this week’s theme? Is Water. Better than Empty, right? Actually, water sounds kind of good to me right now, because ice cream sometimes makes me thirsty, y’all. So, here’s the first picture…
This photo was taken on our last day in Aruba during our vacation there in 2001. That’s GR in the water. Actually, this is one of GR’s most favorite photos, and it pretty much sums up our entire trip to that beautiful island. Aruba is truly a paradise. The water is the most striking shade of turquoise that I’ve even seen.
This next photo was taken at the beach in front of the hotel where we stayed–the Radisson Aruba…
And this photo was taken on the northeast coast of the island where the water is pretty treacherous. Didn’t do any swimming here…
We’re hoping to return to the island one day when we stop coming up with ideas to sink money into the old homestead. Guess you can’t do both, right?

I like the last photo best, that deep blue is really beautiful.
Your photos are beautiful, I especially like the one on the bottom with the wave crashing, I can almost hear them …
Awesome!
Wow - gorgeous photos. The last one looks like it could be a painting.
Thanks for stopping by.
Ohhhhh…. Aruba!!! I really like that picture of GR, it looks like it came out of a movie
Oh wow, that first photo almost looks surreal. LOVE his open arms as if he’s embracing the ocean.
And the last one … I love to watch crashing waves. Nature at its best.
Enjoy the weekend!
These are beautiful pictures. I really like the first one… so unique.
The first photo is just wonderful + it totally makes me want to sit on a beach in Aruba

The last photo is just opposite of the first one! Great shots
I haven’t gotten my fill yet of all these gorgeous photos of tropical beaches!!! I am crazy in love with those turquoise waters…
~~~Blessings~~~
I can see why GR likes that photo with him in it. I also love the last one. Great water pictures. Have a nice weekend.
Very pretty, I love the color of green in the middle photo
All the pictures are great but my favorite is the second one. It looks so peaceful.
That must be something to be able to walk out of your hotel and be on the beach. It is so beautiful!
I’ve never been to Aruba … I’d like to go sometime.
Thanks for stopping by mine
Why do I live in Canada again? Why? Why?! WHY!?
I freakin-dee-frackin’ hate snow!
Gorgeous photos.
They’re all beautiful! I need to do some more traveling in the Caribbean!
