Snowflakes

We are scheduled for a big snow storm to hit here in Santa Fe today and it should last till the New Year. Yikes! I've always been fasinated by snowflakes - the individuality, sizes, types, and how they cover all that is familiar. Below are some flakey inspirations. Let is snow!

Wednesday's Wonders 4.21.10 Getting There

Today, I rode my bike to work. It was a beautiful spring morning here in Santa Fe. The birds were chirping, the flowers are blooming and the sun rising over the mountains. I happen to be fortunate enough to live close enough to work (3 1/2 miles) to be able to bike to work or into downtown Santa Fe. I absolutely love this! I've always wanted to live close to a downtown, no matter how big or small.

This is my first bike ride of the year. I know, a little late getting started, but I've started!! My bike has weathered the harsh winter and was raring to go. I, on the other hand was a little hesitant. I had injured my foot last week and thought it was broken. It's still a bit tender and I didn't know how I would do pedaling a bicycle. But I took my time, and I was ok.

This is where the Wednesday's Wonders come into play ~ Getting there, the journey. I love taking my time. I see things I don't typically see. Experience things not typically experienced. I've lived here in Santa Fe now for 7 years. And there are still wonders not yet seen.

Here are some great little wonders found today ~ getting there.

The Oldest Church in the USA - San Miguel Church, circa 1610.

The Oldest House in the USA circa 1646.

Vigas coming out from a gallery wall. Notice the handcarving and painting on the sides....

March = Celebrations!!

So much to celebrate in March - birthdays, warmer weather, first day of spring, buds on the trees, St. Patrick's Day and so much more! I am so looking forward to this month! What are you looking forward to??

Sunshine

Am needing a little warmth and sunshine today. A comfy window seat, an extra comfy afghan, a good book or some handwork, and some good coffee.The sun keeps you warm, lifts your mood, makes you smile. What more do you need?

I'm ready....

I'm ready for SPRING! With a big snow storm knocking on our back door, all I would love to see are spring flowers, hints of green grass, and budding trees. The robins are already here, but they might want to head south again!
