This heart’s for you

I blame cabin fever. It's not particularly cold where I live - not compared to my Yankee neighbors' snow storms, but it's been rainy and I've been staying in more than usual. I miss my daily walks, though I still get them in when the weather breaks. Without any little ankle-biters to wrangle, I needed something … Continue reading This heart’s for you

Whenever I go on my weekly photo hikes, I go for a very specific reason... to take photos.

Monday my son heads back to school. Saturday he finally agreed to get his hair cut. This was seriously epic. The guy has CrAzY hair. Long, blond, curly, and OUT. TO. HERE. That adventure, by far, upstaged going on a photo hike. I wish I could show Before/After shots - he's shy. He had four … Continue reading Wired
