I never would have guessed when I started posting photos for my Creative Journey, that I'd reach Day 600!
Sometimes, I amaze even myself. :)
Today my husband and I took some time to drive south to Moscow, Idaho to visit our middle daughter Julie. She attends the University of Idaho there. Julie needed a bit o' help with a dying computer. We dropped off some household items. Then we took her out to lunch.
She's pretty excited that she's now in her senior year, but nervous about what comes next. We had an excellent conversation, talking over options with her, and batting ideas about grad school around.
Then we went for a ride in the convertible — top down on this gorgeous Idaho day — into the country. We decided to take some back roads through the tiny town of Troy. It was charming and idyllic. I took a few photos, but they just don't do justice to the 70 degree warmth in the spring air, the slight breeze nudging the wispy clouds, the slowly emerging colors of spring, or the simple good emotions arising from our family drive together.
We found this barn cozied up in the hollow of a field. The afternoon sun glints off the tin roof. The last of the snow clings to the shady underbelly of the hills. New grasses push through the defrosted soil. In the distance, the evergreens stand sentinel.
