Beautiful blue skies today

contradicting to my mood....

Started out with a walk in the park on my mind....

ended up taking a bit of a hike instead...lol

(so unplanned I didn't even have a camera!  Thank you iPod!)

Much enjoyed break by the lake....could have stayed on those rocks all day!

 

Spent the day catching up with Geoff, Joseph and Emma

Geoffrey doing what he does best.....YAPPING!

early morning sketch

Great night had by all, our share of wine, great company and our own art!

Stroll At Night II ~ by me....lol

Please ignore my VERY tired eyes!

The moon is almost full

So, I just got home tonight & having issues with the good camera so you are not getting the best tonight but I did promise a picture a day; or in this case night.  

should be beautiful tomorrow night!

blue skies again today

peaceful



a peaceful kind of day



Looks like Gracie decided it was a good evening for a swing....

So, I never left the house today!  I cleaned, sorted, organized - so far nothing looks organized but major progress has happened, promise!  I listened to the iPod for the majority of the day and even broke out a sketch pad which I am pretty sure I haven't done since high school!  So, here is a snap shot of one of today's sketches.

Last night's Winter "Storm" we awoke to....

Can't beleive I have kept my little shamrock alive in my office for over 6.5 years!

So today Mom and I had decided to take Mamaw to eat brunch at Amis Mill and then she showed us some of the places she grew up.  Some no longer standing and some standing better than one would expect.  No clue who lives there now....

After the storm

This was my view as I was getting ready this morning. 

Always amazes me that such beauty seems to always follow the storm.  

It makes the storm worth it.

because I just like old family cemeteries (location: Hawkins County/Rogersville)
