walk to park

This morning our little family went to Piedmont park. We like to go there a lot. 

However today was different.  

        With any great passion of the arts the more you submerge, the more you learn and discover.
I consider C.S. Lewis to be one of the great thinkers and authors of all time, he turned me on to the idea that upon reading a story over and over again one might discover things that they never knew was there, despite the words never changing. I now know why people can read books over and over again and still enjoy them.
         The same principle can be applied to photography and atmosphere. I have been to Piedmont Park dozens of times and I have walked the same path, however today the walk was different. I discovered things in the park that I had missed last time I was there; my connection with art and surroundings is alive...I feel more like a finder of cool things......

and i give you the mornings' findings....

thanks for looking! 

picking up pace

Life is rolling on by with a strong force. Summer is over. No more sitting around the house. No more filling my days with laying by the pool and thinking up tasty things to cook, meanwhile waiting for Charles to get home.

Fall brings new things.

I START SCHOOL Monday. 7:30AM orientation - crazy? I'd say.

I GOT A JOB I start tomorrow. Platos Closet, baby!

Meet Spartacus & Maximus:

Charles and I decided to get a couple fish today. They are epic (and cute).


Today, Charlie and I went to Piedmont Park. It was beautiful!

Found this little guy:





Charles cracks me up.

He says:

Im too loud
I dance all the time
I add parts to the song that he doesnt hear
I eat weird

but when I make him cheesecake or impromptu pumpkin cheesecake cinnamon cookies
he gets this look on his face, grabs my belt loops, and tells me that I am beautiful and my cooking is beautiful.

charm.

Tonight - Movie in the park : Sabrina. :)
