“{this moment} – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

If you’re inspired to do the same, leave a link to your ‘moment’ in the comments for all to find and see.”

Why I Am So Stupidly Lucky

Sharing some photos of the new farm:

We’re on 653 acres of north Georgia farmland now, hugged on the south by the Coosawattee River, the same river that wraps around the bottomland of the family farm, about ten minutes’ drive from here. Our house is a teeny brick ranch and we. are. LOVING it.

I needed to practice adding images (and still do; I’m not finding it very intuitive here) so I figured a nicey-nice positive post would be a good idea, since I’ve got some hardcore rants up my sleeve 😉 IF my kids will ever let me get back on track with writing seriously…
