Life has a funny way of showing up and keeping it real. There are no road maps, there are no instruction manuals to show us the way to go as we venture forward. Unlike hiking, there are clues along the way to keep you on the path. Life offers us many obstacles and how we…

Secret Garden
There is a place close to home that you can lose yourself in the beauty of nature. In the the middle of suburbia where you feel like you are in a secret garden. The grounds have been nurtured and loved by the caretakers. The gardens have shape and textures that give and go with…
Summer Colors
Found a rare opportunity to wander the grounds and explore the flowers of summer. The vibrancy of the colors shown bright in the sunshine. While capturing the beauty of the distinct contrast of white and greens a butterfly danced in front of the lens. It settled among the white flowers and fluttered its wings…
Mountain Top
After a recent visit to Mountain Top, I got to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. A warm genuine couple opened their home and I got to embrace a wonderful weekend. Sitting by the lake embracing the morning coffee. The water lily’s opening to the day as the day started with a sweet…
Pinnacle
An afternoon adventure opened up to glorious beauty. I am afraid of heights, I don’t embrace them, I don’t put myself in places that my sense of self would be compromised. Nature speaks to me, it calms me and opening up my eyes to what life has to offer. I can think clearer and leave…
Beauty of the Brandywine
In Chester County Pennsylvania, there is a beautiful creek called the Brandywine. There the water flows shallow in areas and deeper in others. This is surrounded by hiking and biking trails that snake through the county. As we wonder down the trail, fly fisherman are out on the river wading with their rods in…
Easter
Its a time of family. To slow down and enjoy each others company with food and conversation. Spring is here with the flowers of the season. Egg hunts and giggles of chocolate treasures. Time for the Egg Hunt – and treasures to be found!

Winter wonderland
There are few opportunities to catch nature as its purest. This morning when the sun rose, the ground trees and life was covered in heavy white snow. Unlike other snowy mornings, this opportunity was fast and fleeting. Today was not the bitter cold of winter, but a moment in time where with one quick breeze,…
Green Eyed Wonder
Have you ever felt you were given a gift that truly was meant for you? I rescued Maggie as a puppy no bigger than my shoes, adorable with those green eyes. This little puppy grabbed my heart, she pushes my buttons and when I am sad, she snuggles up next to me to give…
Remnant of Ole’
Living in Chester County has a home town feel. Walking the streets after a fresh snow and catching a glimpse of the past holiday season. The quiet peace of the neighborhoods still donning the remnants of Christmas. The snow shimmering from the greens. As winter sets in more of the same cold and…
Lunch Visitors
After an arduous descent and trek across a vase open crater, we settled in for some well deserved lunch. Sitting in the midday sun, taking in the surrounding views were every bit as amazing as the day had been. Did you ever have the experience, you knew you were suppose to be right where…
