Autumn is Coming


I really enjoy the summer, but towards the end of the summer I am ready for the heat and humidity to be over. The fall is my favorite time of the year. I love the cool nights and warm days. The sky looks so clear and it seems like the blue is more intense. Of course, my hubby would say it is the best time for BBQ. The best part to me is all of the color. I can't wait for the leaves to start changing!

Looking Up

I am a constant sky observer. I love looking at the clouds, the moon and the sun. You don't have to travel far to capture a beautiful sky. My house faces east so have the perfect view of breathtaking sunrises right across the treetops. All of these sky shots were taken right outside my door.

My Beach Cottage Fantasy

I have an obsession with beach cottages. I love looking at design and renovation magazines, and one of my favorites is Coastal Living Magazine. I flip through the pages looking at all the beautiful homes on the coast, and imagine living in a house like that one day. That will probably never happen, but it is still my "If I won a lottery" dream. Don't we all have those?

I especially love beach cottages. The idea of having a small cottage with lots of light and casual interiors makes me giddy. I have all kinds of ideas in my head of what the style would be, the fixtures, colors, and the artwork. 

The funny thing about my "win a lottery and buy a cottage at the beach" fantasy is - I don't ever buy lottery tickets! I guess if that dream is ever going to have a chance I had better start buying tickets. Oh well, I still have my fantasy...
