Reasonable Facsimile

DD wanted to go to the seashore today but it takes longer to get there than I had time for so he had to be content with this substitue experience. Besides who want to get sand in all of one's cracks?!

Nice

[Corinne C]

A fun composition.
How one resists going to the seashore :-)

[Mary Siegle]

“In all of one’s decks” would have been more genteel. But I agree. No time to go to the beach? Hug a seashell intead! You might download a sound file of gently flowing water (or crashing waves!) to add to the experience. Nice photo in any case!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

If you listen closely DD you will hear the ocean talking to you.

Good point about the sand. When you finally eat it, you don't want sand in your teeth.

[Kathy]

haha! I'd like to go to the beach too. Tell DD he might melt there.

[Diane]

I think it's safer for DD to stay with his shell and not risk the heat of the sun. Good shot.

[JackieR]

😂🤣😂🤣😂

[Dawn]

Haha

[Diana]

A good decision, do I spy a corner missing on the top right?

[Susan Wakely]

When you can’t go to the seaside bring it to you.

[Kathy A]

Much safer for DD to be out of the sun

[Dione Giorgio]

Nice shot. Better a chocolate wafer then many things to do and walking on the sand and when you get home wasting time to clean shoes and much more.

@corinnec thanks Corinne and you are right
@mcsiegle have you just met me?! I am anything but genteel! great ides and thanks Mary
@olivetreeann he WAS being very quiet so perhaps that is what he was doing!
@slaabs I know right?! I hadn't even thought about THAT!
@randystreat You know I hadn't considered that possibility at all! Good thing we didn't go!
@eudora You are absolutely right Diane thank you so much
@30pics4jackiesdiamond glad you like it Jackie
@Dawn happy it made you laugh Dawn
@ludwigsdiana I am glad you agree and no not yet but soon, Diana, soon
@wakelys I wish it were really that easy for me
@kjarn You are so right We dodged a bullet with that didn't we?
@sangwann thank you so much Dione I agree with you about the mess

[Marilyn Wigen]

The B&W is perfect for this well composed shot! And I agree with the other commenters about the heat and the sand… good choice for DD on the substitute… however, that would not even come close as a beach substitute for this beach girl! 😊

@marilyn thanks fo all that support and how well I know this would be NO substiitute for you!
