Italian Sage

That's the real color of the paint I used.  But, here, it looks blue!

Happy Thanksgiving!

So nice to wake up to a beautiful sunrise.  It's 12 degrees and the skies are clear.

The days on this spread were incredibly peaceful and restful and restorative.  The weather was mild and I enjoyed my alone time.   The filigree leaves are from a Thanksgiving card Anne and her daughters sent.  

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Where Did the Week Go?

Seems like I just posted that last page and here it is almost a week later.

We owned the Northern Peaks Motel back in the 90s.  This postcard was one of the old ones the previous owner had.  I think the picture is from the 50s!  We had new ones made but I didn't save one of those.  Well, I hadn't saved this one either; my friend, Anne, sent it to me.

The circular star sticker says, "Kyle" on it.  Gary picked a booklet of them up for Kylie.  He thought she could just add an "i" to it!

Kylie's Art Work

Kylie loves to draw in my journal.  She asked if she could draw her new ZhuZhu pet.  She named it Talulah after the character of the same name in the Maisy books she still loves.

Here she is hard at work on it. 

My Day

It started with the sun peeking over the mountain.  It was 20 degrees.

After breakfast I headed to Glen Ellis Falls in Pinkham Notch.  It's about 20 miles away.  This is a beautiful area that has a nice walking path.

 

This is the river just before it falls.

The water falls 64 feet.

As I headed back up the stairs, I stooped down and took this picture.  I love how the flare cascades over everything.

Then I got some exercise walking back up these stairs.

Let's Go for a Walk

Come with me as we take a walk through the woods.  Don't you just love these white birches?

I took a bunch of pictures of dead foliage.  These fluffy things were so pretty in the sun.

And these dried daisy-like flowers caught my eye.

Love this gossamer stuff.

There are still a few golden leaves hanging from the trees.

I played around with the timer feature on my camera and managed to snap this of me sitting on a rock in the sun.  I was wishing I'd taken my book with me so I could have sat there for awhile.  It was such a bonus day! 

Hope you enjoyed your hike through the gorgeous woods of northern NH!

I know these pages aren't too creative but at least I'm journaling!
