Walk in Wonder
It’s late autumn in the far southern part of the United States. I’m enjoying late afternoon walks near my house and here are ten things I’ve noticed while walking.
A Week In My Life
For my next photography assignment, I recorded a week in my real (and raw) life. There are walks, dogs, and even a day trip.

Surprising Advice
Life coach Barrie Davenport, in her blog Live Bold & Bloom, had a recent post about how emotions can sabotage our happiness. She had some excellent insight into the myriad of reasons why this can happen, but I was surprised to see two of the pieces of advice that I use on days like that,…
