Walking

We walk and talk and become good friends. My morning walks have been sweet joy to me. I've had wonderful walking partners over the years and I know the visits and vistas to start the day have saved me from many an emotional pitfall. I live in such a beautiful, peaceful, quiet place that soothes my soul and provides healing and gratitude. Come, take a walk with me and see what I see.

Stella's First Fourth

Stella's First Fourth of July all dressed up. The fireworks were good but looking at her was better. We had such a fun week-end with Sally, Willie, Wyatt, Hank, Calder, Starr, Stella, David and me.
We went cruising in the Mini to the ice cream store. Sally spent time at the quilting store I own part of. Willie enjoyed the music played on Main Street and the book store. I went to the Plen Aire art exhibit. David worked in the garden. We went to a quilt exhibit. We ate and visited and enjoyed the beautiful day.

The evening was cool and magical.
Wyatt stayed up way past his bed time. He is so joyful about little things. He jumped up and down and said how much fun he was having..living in the moment.

At the end of the day I asked him if he knew why we celebrated the 4th of July. He really didn't know so after I explained it was in celebration of the birthday of our country and how wonderful it is that we live in freedom and plenty, he said "We are so blessed." I say "Amen to that."
