Relax

I haven't been taking any photos of late, and this has to stop. First of all, I miss it. And secondly, I am digging back into my file folders for something to post. Not really a problem, but I want something NEW. Yeah, it's my own fault, I know. All of the above shots are from Folly Beach, South Carolina. Except the rose, which was at one of the plantations we visited.

We have been working hard to complete Halloween crafts to sell in our booth. The days just seem to fly by, and I have not been able to just sit and relax. Today I am changing the pattern. Yes, it is good to work hard, but that little creative edge can easily be lost if you don't just breathe.

The dogs and I are heading for our morning walk. Always helps to put life in perspective. Enjoy yourselves.

Things that make me smile

Isn't it always the way that when you have some "free time", no obligations to be somewhere, that is when you get sick? The exercise facility that employs me as an instructor is closed for cleaning this week. I had plans to work on crafts, meet friends, do whatever struck me.

And here I sit, running a fever, nursing a very sore throat. I sat down at the computer this morning, and thought "I need something to lift my spirits", so I opened the folder of pictures from Asheville and Charleston.

Hope you enjoy them.

The Color Green

I am yearning for the color green. We have straw and dead in central Indiana due to the drought and a mandatory watering ban. So this morning I pulled up the folder with the photographs from the Biltmore estate. Our visit was in early May of 2011.

Looking at pics of former weekend trips and vacations lifts my spirits. These in particular give hope that yes, the drought will pass. The rain will fall, although we did finally get some rain this morning.

Hope your day is a good one.
