High Summer

Summer’s been a busy one for me and the family. The girls—me, Laura, Kayla, Kat, Sarah, celebrated Kat’s birthday with a two-day shopping spree, ending at Saks with our pals there. Nobody left empty handed—and we all had plenty of pretty new things to take on our upcoming vacations. * Sarah and her family were … Continue reading High Summer →

Ireland, end notes

I’ll start with the fact that Nora is home safe and sound. Being herself, she got straight back to work on Wednesday, then will host the family summer barbeque this Sunday. I, on the other hand, am doing laundry and clearing out the things that built up while away. In another compare/contrast: Nora’s approximately 93.5% … Continue reading Ireland, end notes →

Ireland, day 16

A lovely day in every way. My morning view, simply beautiful, all bright in shimmering blues and greens. The event’s this afternoon, and for me comes in many parts. First up, get that workout done and clean myself up. Kayla comes by. Laura has assigned her social media for today, so she’s here for some … Continue reading Ireland, day 16 →

Ireland, day 15

Sunshine returns. During my morning workout I could see a little window of blue in the gray. And while I sweated it out, the blue spread and widened until everything shimmered in the sun. A nice reward for me! Once I finished and cleaned up, I headed out to join Laura for a tour of … Continue reading Ireland, day 15 →

Ireland, day 14

Sunshine turns into wild winds and driving rain. Little white caps ride the lake, and that wind streams through the window I have open a few inches. Time to dress in those layers. Laura comes over so we meet the rest of the gang in the castle lobby. We’re walking over to The Cottage for … Continue reading Ireland, day 14 →

Ireland, day 13

Another spectacular day. Another reason to take a late morning walk, choose a new path and wander to the music of birdsong and light breezes. I see more downed trees—the winter storm had to be horrendous. But still the woods are green and thick, and flowers find their way to blooming. Another path between castle … Continue reading Ireland, day 13 →

Ireland, day 12

We have another absolutely gorgeous day. A little soft weather late morning until just after noon. It didn’t discourage my walk in the woods. It’s so special, wandering around different paths, huge trees shielding from both the beaming sun and the light drizzle so you’re walking in a quiet, magical world serenaded by birdsong. A … Continue reading Ireland, day 12 →

Ireland, day 11

As perfectly beautiful as a day gets. Everything blue and green and bright. I decide to spend some time soaking it in. I walk, wander, come across a large group doing a hawk walk. Pause and watch awhile. Seeing those hawks swoop through the air, arm to branch, branch to arm, is just breathtaking. I … Continue reading Ireland, day 11 →

Ireland, day 10

An all day rain keeps us mostly indoors. Though most of us, Kat, Jason, Griffin, Kayla, JR. Colt and Savanna shuttle over to spend some time meeting the castle dogs. Gorgeous doggies, and very good boys and girls. The Irish wolfhounds are so special. Big as ponies and with such an easy, steady calm. I … Continue reading Ireland, day 10 →
