A beautiful summer moment.

Children have an amazing way of examining the world around them. They still look at the world in awe, taking time to genuinely look at something.
When we grow up we assume we know what any given flower looks like. We forget that once we examined the petals one by one with wonder, then reveled in the symmetry of nature.

An ode to summer

Can't help but to rejoice that the weather is warm in Michigan. It is that season for flip-flops. My claustrophobic feet are so happy to finally be free to breathe again. The blues in this photograph are so refreshing. I sat down on a railroad trestle to watch the water pass by, and could not resist hanging my flip-flops over the edge. ( I'm such a risk taking rebel)
