Words of My Own

Adventuring

This is one of my favorite things. Adventuring. I love to get up and go. I love to see new things, new places, beautiful things, all sorts of things.

I have a habit of putting into words what my mind is trying to describe...all the while using some word that is only common to me. I'm sure now and again some of those words drift into a blog post. I may or may not even be aware of it.


I believe I used this particular word recently in a mail to my Disney/Bloggerland friend Beth. She went on to post about it. Which, of course, brought all sorts of smiles to my being. You see, Beth is a writer. A REAL LIVE WRITER--we're talking BOOKS, people! She likes my fun word!

Anyway...All this about a silly word that I happen to enjoy immensely is leading up to what I'm doing this weekend. Hopefully, a bit of adventuring. I'm headed out in about an hour with my friend Brenda to go to the Olympic Peninsula. I know, you're thinking...'she never posted about her first trip over there and now she's telling us she's going back'.

Well, I am.



This is a photo from First Beach at La Push, WA on the Quileute Reservation. This is from my first trip over in January. There was a storm rolling in and the winds were coming at us full force. The waves were incredible to watch and the sea stacks are incredible. You might recognise it since it is quite similar to the photo I took that now sits at the top of this blog :)


This weekend is for a little R&R. Hopefully we'll stroll along at low tide to see some of the tide pools along the beaches, watch a sunset, read, check out some of the rain forest. I can hardly wait to soak up the wilderness...the peacefulness only found in the wild.


Where do you like to go to find some balance and renew your mind?


Hope you all have a great weekend!


Blast blogger...I can not get the font italics or size to change. Sorry folks!

Deb, I hope your adventuring over the weekend was wonderful, and full of new discoveries at every turn! And, oh yes, you still owe us all that Forks report. ;-)
