Train tracks, brick homes, and wild canola.

Ever see the wind blow and wonder where it goes?
Take my hand, let's take a trip and chase it down the road.

How does your garden grow? With silver bells and cockle shells, and pretty maids all in a row

Daisy: What kind of a garden do you come from?
Alice: Oh, I don't come from any garden.
Daisy: Do you suppose she's a wildflower?

Alice in Wonderland

If you look across the valley, you can see exactly what I mean

To lie on the grass on a summer day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time.
John Lubbock

Ghosts, wandering here and there, troop home to churchyards

Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander everywhere.

A Midsummer Night's Dream

The joy of the prairie lies in its subtlety. It's so easy - too easy - to be swept away by mountain and ocean vistas. A prairie, on the other hand, requests the favour of your closer attention. It does not divulge itself to the mere passerby.

Hello my lovelies!!
I just put together a website for all of my photography (link below); it's not quite done - still in the beginning stages, but please let me know what you think, either via email or comments on this post.

Thank you all, heaps!
Enjoy.

Born To Be Wild

Running through the hills of Echo Valley at midnight with my dear friend.

View from the top.

Exploring the point

Spent the evening and part of an afternoon out in The Echo Valley with my dear friend Natalie.

The summer night consisted of a few glasses of wine, some late night adventures in the hills, a visit to a haunted house, and plenty of wildflower bouquets.

Little Treasures

Krista (in pink) and Myself

Part of my tea cup collection

Candle holders and a new towel rack I picked up at a second-hand store.

My new summer dress from Muse
(dress boutique I work at)

I have recently picked-up a new hobby - sewing!
My weekend was full of making colourful girly skirts.

Pillow cases I snagged - second hand. $1.99 for the pair!
So pretty.

A house is made of walls and beams; a home is built with love and dreams.
