Beautiful Koi! :)

Last Week, part of our trip took us to Southern Oregon. It was the first week in forever the sun actually graced our State, YAY!

We stayed at a lovely Inn for a couple of nights, the Ashland Creek Inn in the Edinburgh Suite it was beautiful and relaxing and comfortable, 3 things I really need on a vaca! (yep, I need more things than that but this was a great start :) If you are ever in need of a place to stay in Ashland Oregon, I highly recommend this Inn :)

They had a beautiful Koi pond in the pretty garden and I took a LOT of photos of these guys just cruising around, what a life! The light on the pond was so awesome and I was mesmerized completely.

Hope you enjoy these guys as much as I did :)

Have a Wonderful Monday :)

Happy Painting/Creating! :) T.

Dawn Glow.

I woke up early the other morning and this is what I saw :)

I was so blown away, I had to drag myself out of bed to snap these photos before this beautiful glow disappeared and it did very quickly. (Of course, I fell back into bed and went straight back to sleep :)

As rain is predicted all week and it was very intense yesterday, I had to go and take a look at these shots to help me remember what a clear morning looks like.

Have you noticed that I blog a lot about the weather; I read recently that people use the weather in conversation as an ice breaker. Oops! Sorry about the luke warm pun :)

Anyway, I am not sure I agree with that statement but I do know that the weather is a huge part of our lives and especially for me it can sometimes either make or break the day :)

How about you?

Hope you are having a wonderful Monday!
