A Walk in the Park



Tree Of Life Pendant from my Esty Shop

I fully intended to introduce you all to my Chick's Passions jewelry today, I fully intended to spend the day making more jewelry to post onto my Etsy account. But, instead, there were other plans in the making and I only managed to give up on one experimental piece (just for now!) and complete a Tree of Life Pendant in Purple and Blue (and even that isn't completely done yet!) Those things were not accomplished, but there was a lot accomplished at the same time.

Gardinia bush Hubby bought me

I took test pictures, trying to bring out the best that I can do with my camera and the little bit of knowledge I have gained. I did some household chores and even made chili!

Water Shot of Hubby's Boat

Hubby makes boats go VROOM!

But the one thing that I did that meant the most is go to the park and spend a little bit of time with the husband while he ran his RC boat, which I know means the world to him. I gave my time, took some amazing video for him and then took incredible shots of his boat on the water. It is a win win for the two of us! He loves his boats (not nearly as much as he loves me!) and I love freezing time with my camera!

After getting some great shots, I decided I was going to go explore a little with my camera. We have only been to this park a few times and I had yet to let my adventurous side out and allow my camera to be my tour guide.

 
There is this gorgeous wooden bridge surrounded by water and tons of foliage. Crank up my senses! Turn on my creative side and I was in heaven for a few brief minutes.


While taking shot after shot, testing the camera in ways I hadn't done before, I met a dog. He came from around the corner of tall grass, mud up to his cute doggy ankles, sniffing around trying to find whatever it is dogs sniff around for. I stood still on the bridge, not knowing for a brief
second if the dog had a human pet, or if he was somehow lost and scared. He looked at me, I am sure thinking pretty much the same thing, then walked across the bridge and right on past me. He then walked to the the water and climbed on in! I hurried and took a shot of him in the water. Just then his human pet came around the corner. He was an older man, and all dressed for the hike he was taking with his beloved companion. He seemed like a very happy and gentle man, and I was happy to encounter them both on my adventure. He introduced his dog, Joshua to me and then held him still so I could take one more picture. He told me that Joshua loves his walks, and I believed him as I haven't seen a dog more happy to be out in nature in a long time. (my own dog, my tiny tea cup, can fit in the palm of my hand dog, would be too afraid of the bridge to dare get near it! She's afraid of ants which are about the same size as her to begin with!)  I never caught the man's name. Although, I won't soon be forgetting Joshua and his human pet. They were quite the couple and put a warm smile on my face!

 It is now time for me to settle down for the evening, maybe I can finish that one last piece of jewelry before I head off to dream land! Or, just maybe I will just sit here, all stuffed from the yummy chili and warm cheesy garlic biscuits and play around with my photos some how! Monday morning is right around the corner, and I will be well rested and ready for the weeks adventures!

All my love to my Lovies!
