Life Around Here Lately

The family favourite meal.
Crazy how fast the days fly by!  Why doesn't winter go this fast?  Even though we are waking up earlier and still going to bed late there just doesn't seem to be enough time in a day.  The days have been cool here except for a few really hot days here and there, (Those are 'lets make the most of this and go to the beach' days!) and the nights have been chilly with lots of blankets.  Sleeping here has had its challenges with a 2 year old that has decided she really doesn't need sleep!  I don't share the same view.  Still making runs to the bathroom with a look out for any wild animals.  I was sure that there was a family of wild cats outside the RV the other night!  Actually I saw one!! Steve said it was just a cat.  I got thinking it could have been a lynx? YIKES!!!!

After a not so refreshing nights sleep it's best we don't do a lot of chatting first thing in the morning!  Meals at the picnic table have become a new thing for us.   It saves me sweeping the floor a million times in a day. Squirrels seem to love picking up after my kids.  In fact one got a whole jelly filled donut the other day.  Our main staple has become toast, BBQ grilled cheese, hot dogs, and of coarse an all time favorite of kraft dinner!  Life is simple and although I like that it still is an adjustment.  It really makes me see how comfortable we are back home and how much we really have. To even think that a lot of the world has so much less than what we have here at he RV has really got me thinking a lot about poverty and ways of helping the poor. (Perhaps A new dream awakening in me connected to funtastical studios).



With me still working hard on my creations, taking time out to explore this area is a must.  We are situated in a really nice spot with lovely towns, cities, beaches and a large art community! We took some time out and explored a beautiful old building that has been converted into art studios and a gallery (another dream within).  It was really inspiring for both me and Steve to see and chat with other artists and to see their work.  I love to see other artists creating from what is inside of them!  It's so very unique!

There is still so much more to see and experience.  I just hope we have enough time!  The next two weeks here at the camp will be busy ones as it is family camp.   Campers are beginning to roll in now and soon there will be lots and lots of people to chat with and making life so much more enjoyable!  So for now I will continue working the RV makeover.  I feel like we have only made a small dent into what we are doing but little by little we will get there.

Exploring new places.
Really cool art studios and gallery.
This sums up a dream I would love to do.
Taking time to smell the flowers.
