today is thanksgiving.  my 35th thanksgiving celebrated with family.  turkey was excellent, as always.  spent some quality time with the family – with my brother & sister-in-law who i havent seen since before labor day!  too long…way too long!

a couple of shots that i could get – no one was in the mood for pictures.

a couple of shots of Niagra Falls, Canada.  Crappy day – raining and cloudy and cold, though would go back to see it again…the sound of the falls is amazing…relaxing in a way.  The view, no matter where you are at, is beautiful.

this weekend was spent in michigan city, indiana.  a small industrial town that sits on the edge of the lake.  million-dollar homes next to run down shacks with blue tarps for roofs.  it was a very nice and relaxing weekend. 

this morning, before we left, i headed towards the beach.  i wanted to put my feet in the sand one more time before they hibernate for the winter.  i wanted to breathe in the beach and the water one more time. 

i sat down in the sand, toes burried, and cleared my mind.  for the first time in weeks, i was able to clear my mind of any negativity.  of any thoughts of work.  of any thoughts of to-do lists.  of goals that havent been met.  of everything.  i was able to sit on the beach and BE at the beach. 

very nice feeling.  very nice.

weekend festivities November 2, 2006

I’ll be spending the next two and a half days in Michigan scrapbooking, knitting, eating, shopping, watching movies, hanging out with Christi & Jeannie. 

I am really not the scrapbook-er, so this will be interesting. 

Bringing my camera…for documentation purposes, of course! 

Have a great weekend!
