l u c k & g r a t i t u d e

 I am fortunate enough to be in the presence of some pretty amazing things.
 Things that some people only get to experience vicariously.
 This...I'm pretty sure isn't one of them. However I am a fan.
When these little babies start hitting the stores it means autumn is here.
My favorite season, given I'm in the pacific northwest.
 Autumn makes everything seem
magical
delicious
tantalizing
cocooning
and
joyous.
 Indoor plants appear more comfortable.
They bask in what little sunlight makes it's way through those impenetrable clouds.
I recently went on a waterfall hunt.
I took a friend.
It was a project of sorts.
 The rain brings out the best in a rocks surface.
It allows for it's true essence to show itself.
As if it were hiding until the autumn rains.
 Given the crisp temperature and the amount of rain that was falling,
we weren't expecting this little guy. 
Although he had just advanced from his year of life in the
water he seemed like he didn't have a place to go.
Like he was too late, he missed his chance to enjoy the summer.
 My friend and I took many photos of our excursion.
Some of these are hers and some are mine.
Like I said...I am so lucky to have all of THIS around me in my daily life.
See what I mean.
 The road less traveled is always free from conformity.
 Just another canvas.
 One of many.
My life is truly amazing.

When I see and hear things like this it always makes me smile...

Daily Musings

Teeny-tiny bells hanging in the doorway of a closet.
 Frida waits patiently amongst the other contestants.
 Rain-boots are always a comfort in the Pacific Northwest.
Just don't wear them out in the snow even for a minute...CRACK!
 A place to hide for a while.
 Feeling small in a big world.
 If you don't catch it, it will be gone in a flash.
 Glowing foliage mystifies the soul.
 Perpetual motion.
 Drive by trees.
Done for a while.
