Today, I vowed to leave the apartment, to walk the short walk to the park (that I have Not been taking advantage of since our move). After I enjoyed my iced coffee (didn't want to hassle with carrying a coffee and a camera...), I packed my bag with my notebook (for my daily writing), my camera, The Last Lecture (a book Alissa lent me to read a long time ago, but just finally getting to), and some papers pulled from a the landscape of art book to draw on.
On my way to the park, I met a sweet old man. You should meet him too - Click HERE. After our meeting, I went on my way and found a spot to think in the north lawn. While I was sitting, thinking, sorting thoughts, writing, I noticed this string in the grass, tangled... into a heart. Perfect. It's Love Thursday. The heart is for me!
Here's to Love Thursday, and the treasures you can find, if only you look. I have more treasures to share from my walk to the park. I'll try to get them up later this afternoon on be a photograph. I'll also try to get some more Colorado photos up (I was supposed to do that this week but have been putting my thoughts elsewhere. Ooops.) I can't make any promises though about how much will get done, because I also have to get dinner ready for friends who are coming to see our new home for the first time tonight. (eeek... I guess that means I also need to clean up a bit around here.)PS: Dad this is the first time I've posted since adding your email. Shoot me a note back letting me know if you got it okay. (O and I almost posted photos of snow, to send cooler thoughts your way...)

I agree there are certainly treasures everywhere we go... and most of them are free for the take...these days I look up & watch the clouds or sunsets & my heart smiles! Lovely rest of the week to you~
Hello Alicia~ I've been picking up treasures most of my life- here and there. But one holds my heart still. On our honeymoon John and I went to Virginia Beach and I found a heartshaped seashell. I don't think one could have a better omen. Have a great day.
Hope your walk, picture taking and reading turned out like you wanted. Have fun with your friends during their visit.
