Charleston Photo – Textures!

ArtFoodHome.com

Since many of you are away visiting friends or family, I will be posting photos this week – enjoy!

Just look at all the wonderful textures. That’s the thing about Charleston. There are the pristine homes, where every details is the ultimate in perfection. There are homes that are historic and some of the details show time, wear and tear. Those home interest me. They are not falling down by any means. These are large, beautiful homes and those imperfections just make it that much more wonderful!

The fern poking through the brick screams THE IMPOSSIBLE… IS POSSIBLE, you just have to believe in it!

Have a great week – Catch you back here tomorrow!

Fresh flowers… a necessity!

I love these lilies… they smell so wonderful. I can grab a bundle when I’m at the grocery store, they last a full week or longer and are problem free.

I remember a gallery in town used to always have big bunches of these, and when you walked into the gallery, WOW! The scent was amazing!

Taking a few days off, posting a week of photos – back to normal posting next week!

Catch you back here tomorrow!

Embrace the cloudy days…

Tree of Life

I saw this tree a month or so ago and it stopped me in my tracks. I quickly grabbed my phone and snapped a photo. I walked out of a neat little design shop (Elizabeth Stuart Design or ESD as we call it), and walking back to the car saw this tree in the parking lot. It was the wild sky and the bright sun that made it stand out.

This tree makes me think of how strong people are when they need to be. When the wind is whipping, the sky is gray and life has problems or uncertainty remember…

The sun is soon to follow.

Let the sun warm you and make you smile. Soon things will turn around, there will be leaves on the trees, more sun in the sky and life will feel better…

Embrace the cloudy days, for they make the sunny days that much more special.

Catch you back here tomorrow!

Mackinac Island Trail – Can you hear the silence?

Mackinac Island Trail – Michigan

Have you ever been in such silence that you can hear it? Most of us are in areas with noise, a lot of noise. From traffic to assorted yard tools the sounds are endless. When you get away to someplace wonderful like Mackinac Island and you bike and hike, if you get into the woods it’s the most wonderful silence. It’s just heavenly!

Who knew silence could be so loud, ha ha!

Catch you back here tomorrow!
