Take every chance you get in life cause some things only happen once. I'm finally getting around to post about our time at Lummi Island. We stayed at a quaint beach house that was within walking distance to the beach. It had no clocks at all. It was fantastic to not pay attention to what…Read more Island Time

First Friday of September
Happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and celebrating it for everything thing that it is. ~ Mandy Hale Have you ever crammed five days of work into four days? Three day weeks always seem to be that way. I didn't even have time for Conspiracy Thursday.…Read more First Friday of September
Midweek Check In
If you're going through hell, keep going. ~ Winston Churchill I was hoping today's blog post would be about out time this weekend on Lummi Island.

Meandering on Ulysess
The best journeys answer questions that in the beginning you didn't even think to ask. This past weekend, the British Hubby and I took our longest journey yet on Ulysses.

Secluded Hiking
It's impossible to walk in the woods and be in a bad mood at the same time. The temperatures have finally dropped. There is still a hint of smoke in the air, but it's not as hazy as last weekend. The British Hubby and I thought we would attempt to hike. We're a bit rusty…Read more Secluded Hiking

The next two episodes talk about Area…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Area 51
Signs of Autumn
Each moment of the year has its own beauty. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson This past weekend, there was a brief reprieve from the heat and smokey conditions.

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” ― Dr. Seuss, I Can Read With My Eyes Shut! This year, I challenged myself to read more. My quest is to complete 12 books this year. That seems doable, right? It's only one book…Read more Books & Book Nooks
Quarter Finals Celebration
Hope is the only thing stronger than fear. The British Hubby and I recovered from the fright of our lives yesterday just in time to see England advance to the semi-finals in World Cup play. Given how exhausted we were, I'm glad I set the alarm so we didn't sleep through the match. Both goals…Read more Quarter Finals Celebration
