Beach Picnic

Impromptu trip to Revere Beach to catch dinner and the sunset.  A pretty great night of soft sandy toes and reconnecting with my Meg.

Ripple

I was grateful for this spot on my hike this morning after receiving a pretty intense craniosacral session.  The wind on the water created a hypnotic ripple, and the phrase "ripple meditation" kept creeping in to my consciousness as I sat in silence with the dogs, the water, the wind, and my body.  Lots of gratitude also for Kerry, for taking such good care of me today, and for coaxing me to "let the love have me."  Love it.

Summertime

Love this view from my window at work - lots of families enjoying time together on this sunny day. 

Fireworks

What a gorgeous fourth of July!  The quiet city and brilliant sun made feelings of gratitude come easily today.  In fact, I felt so happy, grateful, and present in the moment today that I didn't have my phone or camera with me at all.  Not wanting to let this day pass without capturing at least one of these moments, I did manage to capture the grand finale.  Even on television, these fireworks were fabulous!

Driftwood

Ah, heavenly Maine.  I love being here in any kind of weather - even rainy overcast days have a certain magic.  Aside from gazing at the marvelous ocean, Meg, Janice, Laura, and I entertained ourselves by excavating a gigantic piece of driftwood out of the sand and dragging it up to the house.  Looks like we found our wedding "altar"!

Little Fan

Baby Adele made an appearance at Tam and Angie's annual pool party, showing her Boston pride. Her tiny little red sox shirt, and super cute faux hawk had every adult smiling and cooing.  No doubt we are all a big fan of baby Adele!

Greens

After weeks of watering, weeding, loving and admiring, I am now the proud momma of some healthy baby mesclun, kale, spinach and arugula!  They still have some growing to do before harvesting, but I was feeling especially grateful today to be greeted by this happy garden of mine.
