right around the corner...

feeling restless yesterday....
we took off for a drive through the country. we had not traveled far...

when i spotted this cheerful white weed, merrily dancing across the field.

it turns out.

it was just what i needed.

i go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

ERIN!!!! My goodness, your countryside is glorious my dear! AND...on your sidebar, I see some blue bubbles that I SAW AND PICKED yesterday from Pinterest...but now I see them here and REMEMBER that they are YOURS!!! On the Pinterest board, there was no name of the photographer.....well then, may I ask permission to use these with a link to your name and blog? I saw them on AQUA VELVA pinboard.....

Have a soothing day, Anita
