Golden Sunsets And Black Storms

I love that spot where the sun meets the water at sunset and everything is cast into a rosy glow--like the two are blushing from the fleeting contact. Wouldn't you like to dive into water all the shades of a summer peach? Instead, I just sit on the shore being feasted on by mosquitoes. Life almost always looks more romantic in photographs (even without photoshop).

I love the scenery in your pictures. You always take such beautiful photos and I'm so jealous that you live in such a scenic part of the country. Your shoes are so cute!

Would you consider activating a mobile version of your site through blogger? I view your blog on my phone and the site is hard to see.

Very pretty as always! You can keep away mosquitoes by putting lavender EO in a spray bottle with water or directly behind ear, wrists, back of knees whatever. Non sticky, non toxic, smells good and works great!
