Just in case you’ve gotten busy with life, tied up with the news, or if you had good intentions but you started doing something else in the meantime and went down the rabbit hole…

Spring has sprung: Lupine is here!
I’ve never planted lupine. I’ve never actually seen it blooming in Maine because we always used to visit in September (after they bloomed), but here it is in Charleston! Blooming beautifully and for sale. I love to visit shops with beautiful plants, we have several that I can think of and each is a dream!
Continue reading “Spring has sprung: Lupine is here!”What a night, right?
We took a walk a few nights ago and the sunset was so striking. Not as easy to see for us with homes and large trees but you couldn’t miss the bright orange and the fiery yellow. You can tell by the power lines and streetlights that this is an older neighborhood. The outline of the trees makes this a striking image.

After a temp of 80℉ yesterday, and a beautiful (but a bit cooler) sunny day today, it’s definitely feeling like spring has sprung and WHO in this country doesn’t need that right now?
Continue reading “It’s Feeling Like Spring Has Sprung!”After the Ice/Snow – “Winter” Resumes…
This photo was taken on Murray Blvd last week, overlooking the Ashley River in Charleston, SC. After days of being indoors this bright, sunny and warm day was fabulous. With temps hovering near 60℉ the shining sun sure felt good. We decided to take a walk on “The Battery” and it was so pleasant. Many people out walking, jogging, fishing. Quite a delight to feel the warm sun on your face.

This is a photo I took of my husband last month in North Carolina. We happened upon a deep snow event that was so fabulous. This is a cold day after some of it had melted. What a great time. I asked him where we’re going to visit next month to see snow? Haha… December/snow! January/snow! We’re on a roll. Time to get some boots, right?
Continue reading “A Snowy Winter”SNOW DAY!
SNOW DAY! I know this amount of snow isn’t much to many of you who live in climates that regularly receive snow in total amounts that far surpass the amount we’ve received in Charleston, SC (and are still receiving) – I’ve read the comments on many posts with snarky responses. #itsnotacontest
Continue reading “SNOW DAY!”Will you be seeing snow from the arctic blast?
I took this photo in early December while we were in the mountains of North Carolina for a wonderful stay. We arrived (no snow) to chilly temps and a weather advisory, possible snow, especially in the higher elevations. Well, we were pretty excited. We weren’t going to be driving anywhere for the next few days, so what better time to enjoy a major snowfall?
Continue reading “Will you be seeing snow from the arctic blast?”Striking Color on a Chilly Day!
It seems as if part of the world is freezing and the other part is burning. Thoughts (and any help you can provide) go out to those in the path of this fire – this appears to be a nightmare of the worst kind. I’m certainly not going to complain about cold weather (definitely cannot complain in Charleston, SC, but it is chilly here). On a brighter note:

Today, I’m posting a sketch that I started on my phone but never finished. This is feeling like the new year to me. Rushed, trying to get things done. I just discovered I have an issue… Oh, but of course!
Continue reading “In Lieu of a House Plan This Week…”Citrus in the Sun – this is January in Charleston, SC!
Believe it or not, these are not a variety of oranges. They’re limes. I don’t recall the name on the tag, I’m thinking they may be mixed with orange/lime? Interesting, hmmm? When I saw how the sun was hitting the fruit I had to take a quick snap. You see these mainly planted in large (gorgeous) containers. We’ve seen them at a few places we’ve visited. Stunning for sure!

When I saw this dapper man, dressed in his finest riding his bike down a beautiful Charleston, SC street – I thought to myself “only in Charleston” would you see him stop for the Equine Sanitation department who clean up after the horses in town. So classy. What a wonderful city full of unexpected visions.
Continue reading “Quintessential Charleston!”A Sunrise Treasure!
Sunrise. Sunset. I love them both equally. How magical it would be to have an amazing view of one or the other. “If I had my druthers” as my MIL will say, I’m not sure which I would pick. I love a sunrise. I love to pop out of bed as I did in this image above. But, I also love a sunset. We were visiting…
Continue reading “A Sunrise Treasure!”Sound advice in time for the new year…
Just in time for New Year’s goal setters – sound advice from a chocolate, ha ha. I love the dark chocolate Dove pieces. It’s always fun to see the message inside the wrapper. I thought this one was apropos for the time. It’s so true, “Write your own fairytale, and be your own hero” – I would update it to say “Help others write their fairytale where they are the hero” too many words to fit I’m pretty sure.
Continue reading “Sound advice in time for the new year…”Happy Christmas Eve!
I love to post this image on Christmas eve – it was taken years ago, not sure if I took it or if my dad took it and sent it to me. It’s a treasure nonetheless. The magical colors of the sky coupled with the brilliantly lit “Christmas tree” – such a good idea. I’ve always loved this tree!
