This year our hydrangeas have been plentiful. We planted several a few each year and now they’re all going wild! Their beautiful purplish blue color is jaw dropping! We once bought a white hydrangea – what a surprise…

I would love to be sitting in one of these chairs beside my Dad this year to wish him a Happy Father’s Day in person. Travel isn’t likely until this coronavirus at least slows down. Our numbers are rising in SC. #pleasewearyourmask #iwanttoseemyfamily

The cool thing is that each of us has a different idea of what we like or don’t like (if you work in a gallery you will quickly see how there can be one painting, and the comments throughout the day are so varied “love it”/”hate it”, “don’t get it”/”it speaks to me”, “I LOVE the color palette”/”I hate those colors” – it is so interesting!) – which is a GOOD thing. Our house was very classic in design. Some antiques, some new pieces, but something was lacking. We have since fallen in love with the Mid-Century Modern furniture. The classic pieces are so amazing! There is a reason you see them in museums! Those pieces are EXACTLY what our rooms needed!

Well, it’s heron time in Charleston, SC – actually it has been for a few months. Many of the young herons are out of the nest and learning to fly. The adult herons take off so strongly. Perched on a limb they thrust themselves forward and into a strong flight pattern…
