This trip was a few months back, but I’m still deeming the photos shareable.
1. Farmlands at Warren Wilson College.
2. Little baby piglets. The tan one was so sweet and sacked out, it kept getting trampled by the others.
3. Tree stump carved into a hand. Gonna want one for my future sprawling property!
4. Chandeliers in the Bohemian.
5. On the top floor of an art gallery waiting for the rest of our tribe to finish walking through.
6. One of Konrad’s watercolors during late night hotel painting. I quickly confiscated this one for myself.
Took the weekend before last off due to extreme overexertion on my part. 4 1/2 months with no weekends off does not a sane girl make. We drove to Hampton Beach where the sun’s rays actually burst through the clouds, then drove up the coastline enabling me to drool at the perfect houses with stone walls and turrets and grand windows to the sea. Spent the night camping in the back of our car in a parking lot (thanks LL Bean!), then wound our way home through New Hampshire discussing future business plans with such gusto that I’ve already decided who to donate my future fortune to.
Becoming multilingual has forever been on my bucket list, and it seems that every year I have high hopes to further my previous French and Spanish lessons and turn my frequent bursts of crossbreed hybrid foreign catchphrases into something more useful than confusing family and those standing too near. These EF ads might just help me do something about it:
Grüner See (literally “Green Lake”) is a spring fed lake in Austria that fills up with crystal clear water every Spring, and dries out in the Fall until April. When it’s not underwater, it’s a park with benches, paths, roads and meadows. But when the snow melts off the mountains, it becomes one the most insane things I’ve ever seen. Added to the life list.
Braiding beauty and art with life. An afternoon siesta after a homemade lunch. Sisters and swing sets, skinny dipping and summer sun. Magic bike rides on full moon nights, and the golden hours of light.
