How To Identify the Birds You’re Watching!

Is there anything better than getting away to the mountains in the midst of jaw dropping beauty to reset yourself? Everyone needs to get to the mountains at some point. No need for a TV here, so much to watch, it’s ever changing. The clouds, the mountains, the fog, the plants/blooms and of course, the birds, rabbits, etc. The birds were a special treat this visit…

This photo was taken on a walk last week, downtown (Charleston, SC) – there are so many flowers blooming right now it will dazzle your mind, ha ha. It’s beautiful to see everything in bloom, the bees so busy, the scent from the jasmine is starting, oh… next the ligustrums which are exploding with small white blooms. It’s like the strongest scented candle in the very best way.

Exquisite, right? I love this orange table with what reminds me of old time ice cream chairs, and oh! The light yellow umbrella is the perfect accompaniment. I love the shadows from the different plants – This looks like a lovely place for an Easter brunch (or any meal!)

It’s so refreshing to get out and walk somewhere different. We have a few different routes or places that we walk but every once in a while it’s like a mini vacation to drive a few miles away, park and get out and walk somewhere different. It opens your perspective and we see fresh ideas. Plants, flowers, etc.

My husband and I were downtown a few months ago, we walked out of a little shop on King Street and I saw these palms with the light hitting them so perfectly. Striking! I snapped a photo and saved it for today. So beautiful! Looking for some recipe inspiration for Easter, I have a few ideas…

A few wild storms blew through Charleston, SC a few weeks ago and whoosh, it was over. Nothing horrific, thankfully. However, what occurred after the storms subsided was breathtakingly beautiful. The blurriness would be from the raindrops. This color – I love it!

I love sharing good books with y’all – please feel free to give me insight on some of your favorites (non-creepy favorites, ha ha – link below).

Even if it’s only 15 minutes – it’s all good! It’s like meditating, but better!

Spring is magical everywhere in the world, but springtime in Charleston brings a special kind of beauty. The scents wafting through the air are magical. Charleston has many large live oak trees, in this area they have Spanish moss hanging from their stately limbs, they also have Resurrection fern growing on the large branches. Talk about magical…

This plant is such a joy I cannot even begin to express how much I absolutely adore it. We planted a few in pots last year – around this time, they bloomed all summer long! Literally you do nothing but make sure they don’t get too dry (especially in a pot). Give them a nice drink of water when they look thirsty and they’re good!

Another great book by Kristin Hannah! I’m trying not to read all of her books at once, although it’s quite hard not to. I’ve got it down to every other book, but will have to move that to every third book. I just don’t want to be without one of her books! What an escape reading is!
