Life...
Summer - Summer - I LOVE Summer! Just thought I would do a quick update on the blog here for a couple reasons...
1. We did survive the Boundary Waters - and had an amazing time! I just haven't received the pictures from the trip yet (cough...Mother :)) The part I love most about being in the woods for a week - the simplicity. One afternoon we were out in the canoe fishing and just hanging out. We saw some turtles on a log and decided to see how close we could get without them moving... When in life do we allow ourselves to enjoy the simple things around us and make up challenges that are really ridiculous, but seem amazing when you are in the middle of no where.
...
We were able to bump the log with the canoe and one brave turtle held it's ground for a stand off with us. The turtle actually wanted to be our friend :) - it swam into our net and I was able to cuddle it briefly.
2. I wanted to share some upcoming opportunities...
3. And... I know I only said a couple - maybe I meant a few. I wanted to share some photos from the past month.
For some time, after Joe died, I didn't enjoy taking pictures. I am not sure if it was the feeling of something always missing or just lack of interest...I am falling in love with the camera on my phone and have been back in the picture taking mode. Some people, who receive pictures from me often, may secretly wish my phone would malfunction and not be able to document things :).
