Ms. L's Solace

     Over a decade ago - i met a kindred spirit that lived in West Palm Beach, Florida. She is deeply connected spirituality, loves nature & poses a wisdom many don't have anymore. Over the years, the emails, phone conversations and brief weekends together roaming her gardens, we have become good friends. I consider her a mentor. I love listening to her proverbs and stories that leave you left in thought for hours later.
     The butterflies swarm to her, dead things flourish once her hands touch them, birds, rodents, amphibians do not scare when she walks by - unlike how they scatter with me. There's just a gentleness about her… Here's her little piece of heaven...












     I will post more of her garden tomorrow. I spent most of the day out there today with her collecting new flora to bring back to the carolina's with me. Tomorrow afternoon I start my way back up the coast. Tonight will be bittersweet for Me, Ms. L. & her pup, KoKo. I am currently at the one star restaurant, Burger King, posting to my blog… bag full of double cheese burgers at my side for Ko, Ms. L and myself! ...Till tomorrow...


Come Watch The Georgia Sun Set With Me

Friday evening, as the sun was setting, I was getting close to the Florida border. It had been such a peaceful and soothing ride down the coast… The sunset proved to be no different. I shot these with my iPhone out the passenger side window the best I could as I continued on.  







     I staid right out of Jacksonville. I ordered in chinese and watched a little t.v… edited pictures and laid looking up at the ceiling - just to be still. March, 21st turned out to be a lovely day of scenery, inner peace, great tunes and fresh travel'n air. The next day Saturday, I will be reunited with my dear friend Ms. L. It won't be long until I sit with her in the early morning ambiance of her gardens, sipping on coffee and listening to the breeze blow through the palm trees & exotic birds making their songs… & not to mention her wisdom and soft spoken words… Until tomorrow.

A Solo Vacation

     Sometimes life can be a little noisy, busy and full of responsibility… depleting & overwhelming. I'm headed down the east coast by my lonesome to gather some peace, quiet and reflection. So, now through the, 25th I will post my encounters, sights and even possibly a deep thought or two ;) ….or not….
