Mmmm local raspberries and cherry tomatoes!

The day after I got home from New Jersey, which was yesterday, I had the day off. I had originally thought I would go straight back to work after the trip, but I’m so glad I didn’t. I’m so glad I left a day where I had the house to myself, and I got to spend some time alone.

While I love my family, after a trip away with them I need some time to myself. To just get back in the swing of things.

I went out to Hank’s Family Farm for some produce and then drove to Point Aconi beach. I walked along it. I sat. I wrote. I walked some more. Took some photos. Stared up at the sky. It was so nice to be somewhere wide open and with hardly any people around. To be back home. Away from the hustle and bustle of the U.S.

Now we’re in the last half of summer and it’s going by fast. Not that I want to wish the time away but I’m so looking forward to the fall! To being back in North Sydney, to being back in school, back doing design stuff full time.

Anyway. That’s all for now. Elise’s archives have got me dreaming of printing more photos, making more scrapbooks (and by more I mean some), and just generally doing more creative stuff and then sharing it here. So keep an eye out for that.
