Make A Wish

2016 has been a pretty bad year for many, me included. I know that life is a series of ups and downs, but it seems that this year was lacking any kind of balance - there were way too few ups to compensate for the many, many downs.  So what I wish for in the new year is simply more balance, and for a few things to stabilize, in my life, as well as in my friends' lives, and throughout the world, actually.

Black Friday Antidote

November 25, 2016

Sandy Creek Park, GA

This is our idea of Black Friday: Sandy Creek Park was closed, or rather, unstaffed, today; they opened the gates for a few hours and we took advantage of that. Unfortunately, there were no keys to the dog parks. People with smaller dogs lifted them over the fence, but I couldn't do that with Tessa so we walked the trails instead, and sat for a long while on the boat dock watching a few kayaks paddle by. Loved it!

We went on a quick trip to the North Georgia mountains, on this beautiful (but chilly) fall day: US 441 to Black Rock Mountain State Park, which was so crowded that we only stayed 10 minutes; then off along some scenic highways where we stopped at less crowded overlooks, like the Popcorn overlook (above).
