Trying to catch up after several days of no wifi and lots of yard cleanup after hurricane Matthew, back to normal posting next week (recipes, house plans, and artists), for now enjoy the images!
I like to think of this as THE ROAD HOME… although it was actually on the way to the airport, never a happy day. Maine is so beautiful, it’s hard to leave. But, we appreciate our time there SO much!
Catch you back here tomorrow!

A September sunrise in Waldoboro, Maine. Quite the beauty, isn’t it? There was this bright white streak that went across the sky, it was amazing! One of those, where it catches your eye through the window and you grab your camera and run in your PJ’s before its gone!
Catch you back here tomorrow!
Stunning! I have taken so many photographs over the past few years of this very spot. In sun, light, shadow, but this year I was able to add fog to the list. I truly enjoyed those few foggy days. It kept things cooler, which I wanted more than anything! For those of you familiar with Monhegan, this is the view as you walk from the Lupine Gallery back towards the Island Inn – this is on your right – Uncle Henry’s, an iconic cottage that sits majestically on that hill between the wharf and the Island Inn.
It was really nice to catch up with friends – can’t wait until next year!

I took this photo of the lighthouse on Monhegan back in 2014. There is nothing that can get me out of bed faster than a sunrise of this magnitude! Everything about it was stunning. The light spilled across to Manana (Island) and into the water. The island was floating in this beautiful pinkish orange. I feel so blessed to have witnessed this!

I am replacing today’s post with a peaceful image for all of you evacuating your homes due to Hurricane Matthew. Oh, how I wish the roads looked like this! Be patient, know that it’s going to take a while to get anywhere, and be prepared…
Stay safe – a phrase that I have heard so many people say over the past few days…

This photo is from the archives… another beautiful Charleston, SC Sunset… takes your breath away, doesn’t it?
This photo brings a sense of peace and calm, don’t you think?
Happy Sunday – Catch you back here tomorrow!
Charleston, SC shutters -Colorful shutters with varying textures of the house and an odd angle makes for an interesting photo.
Happy Saturday! Catch you back here tomorrow!
Wonderful clouds, bright green marsh grass – a feeling of fall in the air despite the hot temps. I am thrilled to be getting closer each day to the cooler, less humid weather! Woohoo, cool temps make me so happy!
Isn’t this a beautiful setting? It’s located right here in Charleston, off Cosgrove, for those of you who are local. This is Northbridge Park… Spectacular views!

We live in an area where live oak trees were planted in front of each house (back in the 1930’s) – they are so beautiful. Each and every one makes the street we live on something extra special. I love when the sun hits the Spanish moss, or when the resurrection fern that grows on the limbs goes from crispy and brown to lively and bright green – it’s amazing! Click that link to see the before and after (rain), it’s so cool!
These trees are like something in a fairytale! Catch you back here tomorrow!
Elegant, empowering, yet delicate with the shadow that is so full of character. The peaceful ocean waves can put you in the zone, and the sculptural beauty of these trees is hard to believe.
If you haven’t been to Botany Bay in Edisto, SC, I would add it to your bucket list!

Charleston, SC is full of beautiful locations, one being the Cistern at the College of Charleston – so historic, stunning with those grand oak trees. If you’re ever in the Charleston area, the College of Charleston is a beautiful campus to walk through – bring your camera!
What is a Cistern? Here’s some info from the College of Charleston’s website:
The large, grassy oval adjacent Randolph Hall is called the Cistern. Constructed in 1857 to help control flooding due to heavy rain, as well as to provide water for fighting fires, the Cistern was later covered and planted with grass. Today, it is a favorite studying spot for students and the site of commencement in the spring.

Can you believe it’s the first day of Autumn? Whew! Thank goodness! My favorite months are coming up, and I am looking very forward to them!
We all have favorite times of year, what is yours? I cherish the cooler, crisp weather – times when we can open windows and let fresh air in. I love the dramatic October skies, soon to come. Life goes by so quickly, you really do have to make a mental note to appreciate the present, but you can still have your favorite times of year ;)
This photo was taken at Bowens Island Restaurant (Charleston, SC) – which I highly recommend. It’s not fancy, but whew, the seafood is out of this world!

I couldn’t pass by this sunflower without taking a photo – this flower comes complete with a bee. Good timing, thanks Bee!
Photo from the archives… Happy Sunday – Catch you back here tomorrow!
Can you imagine? This sunrise woke me up! I flew out of bed and was stunned! I ran outside (down 3 flights of stairs at the Island Inn to get outside in my PJ’s with my camera). The sunrise was bright red above the lighthouse, yet the water was the prettiest pink with a lone kayaker enjoying the show. I bet the sunrise was amazing to watch from the perspective of the kayaker!

Beware near the St. Clair River in Michigan – Old Fisherman Crossing, hee hee. Oh how I would like to be here right now with a good book! I love that river!
