oh heavenly day

Sometimes I just need a little adventure and time to get away from the city. Sometimes that leads me to random towns like Silverton, last sunday it led me to Dundee, OR also known as wine country. I followed the text instructions from my dear friend Mari and headed up to the vineyard rich hills. I drove up the hill with no destination in mind and pulled over the second I saw this grove of trees.

For a good twenty minutes, I was a giddy little girl running around these trees and gushing over the beautiful light and the sheer number of trees and how there were absolutely no people around.

It was perfect.

Simplify (Dec 31st)

Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful. ~ William Morris

I'm making an effort to simplify, everything really. I've been going through my closet and boxes and getting rid of so much stuff that I don't ever use or wear or need and it is so freeing.

It feels good to have more space and less clutter. So here's to a new year and keeping it simple.

And that's the end. 365 photos, 365 days.

I wasn't quite consistent enough to take and post a picture every day; life got a little crazy in there with trips to Haiti and work and job searching.

I'm going to keep it much more laid back in the coming year, keep it simple and post a picture when I have one I want to show you all. Which will probably be a lot so I hope you'll keep checking back.

Cheers!
