sweet.

A few sweet moments with food and old friends during my week off.  The trip went so well there are hardly words.

solo adventures.

You can do things like take yourself out for ice cream - like a pint of fresh mint to be eaten in the romantic setting of a rock on the river nearby.  Or you can pack up a book, writing materials, and bike out somewhere nice to read and draw and write - don't forget to pick wildflowers on the way.  Sometimes you've got to remember how much fun it can be to hang out with yourself.

summer.

 

Summer in Vermont means my dear friend Melissa lives only an hour away from me and we have all the time in the world to do the things we love - stream swimming, ice-cream eating, and laughing at silly faces/ everything else.  And since it's Vermont there are magical-looking streams everywhere and ice-cream stands include things like maple syrup soft serve (!!).  It's only been a couple of weeks but my apartment and this little town is already starting to feel like home.
