Castles aren't just for fairytales...

...They're also for visiting. Day 5 and this picture was sent to me by a former youth grouper who went on a mission trip with me to Northern Ireland. County Down to be exact.
So today you can gaze into this painting and be magically transported, whisped away - under the cool shade of these Irish boughs, whose fortitudous trunks guard these ancient walls of secret passages. May fanciful dreams of knights, fair maidens and ole Nessie himself invade your pockets of doldrums today.

Her Favorite Shoes

Doesnt this just transport you back to the days of donning your favorite princess tiara and hulu grass skirt, with a plastic wand and sword tucked into your Dad's old belt and of course your favorite shoes as you race out the door to go to the grocery store with your, I'm-sure-absolutely-horrfied -but-lovingly-gracious-and-honestly-too-tired-to-fight-with-you, best Mom in the world.

(And yes i am the daughter of an English teacher. So just know I was using the lonest run-on sentence in the world as a literary device.)

Hot Springs

3/30: Today brings us to the Jemez natural Hot Springs in the Jemez mountains of New Mexico

Hiking through the forest surrounded by breathtaking cliffs of raw, stone slabs. Battleship rock looming in the distance. Up the hill and around a corner or two, in the middle of the forest you'll stumble accross these natural pools, hot springs. A refreshing invitation to take off those too tight sneakers and jump in. Soak your cares away and receive the healing powers of these warm waters. Laughter and joy may even seep into your bones reminding you how to enjoy this life.
