New Photos



Days and time go flying by and somehow my project list is getting longer and longer. This one kept getting put off but I slipped in late last night and may add to it but it is off to a good start. These are pictures from our anniversary trip to Fort Bragg this year. I really loved the size of the frame, it was just begging to be altered! Added some Glass Beach pieces and shells that I have collected from our visits there. When I take photos I think that I would like to add photo taking class to my list! Haha.. Oh well, I will always be happy to learn more another day. Have a wonderful weekend.

Getting back into it


Everyday there are choices to make that have outcomes and effects. Lately, my choices have given me a lot to do and put me on a HUGE learning curve. However, when I get too far off, my soul brings me back to where I need to be. So here I am writing a new post after over a month away. I missed it dearly. Let's begin, last Wednesday was my wedding anniversary and we took a trip up the coast to Fort Bragg. I brought my journal and sketched the footbridge at Pudding Creek.  I learned some things on this trip. I like adding color and it is amazing how the wrong green or blue changes everything. And waves are a challenge for me.




The camera's eye from a different angle and so beautiful. Hubby and I daydreamed of how to retire here. It is our happy middle ground. He loves the redwoods and I love the ocean; this is the best of both worlds!!




And who would not want to live near a carved redwood PANDA statue!!!  I was so excited. I really wanted to take him home with us, but it would not fit in the car. This was a wonderful trip. Lots and lots of thankfulness and the top 5 are...

1. A Redwood Panda

2. Coming back to center, a spot I need to keep closer too

3. Trust

4. The belief that there are opportunities for me out there, I just need to be open

5. Paper, ink, watercolor pencils, and all kinds of fun toys to play with

Have a wonderful week!
