Connect is the word that I have chosen to guide me through the current year. On this perfectly wonderful spring like day just a week ago, Mark and I ventured outside to forge a connection with nature. It was a short walk, just out to Three Pond and back, but it was just what we needed. Since we have opened the shop we have become very sedentary out of pure exhaustion. Forcing ourselves outside is necessary for our sanity. By taking the time to walk, like we did when we first met, we are connecting with each other and nature. Around the pond on this beautiful day we were greeted by gaggles of geese and a raft of ducks. It’s interesting that a group of ducks in flight is a flock but in any other configuration, they're referred to as a raft.
We took photos, lots. We talked, lots. And we had fun. As the year progresses I am hoping to be mindful of the different connections I am able to forge on many different levels.
