Letters Across The Miles ... A Heart for Nana ...

Photo Credit - A Little Bit of Me 

Dear Jennifer, 
As I read your last letter, I knew I wanted to send along "a heart" to you and your family regarding the loss of your Nana. I am sure she was a wonderful woman. You were all lucky to have had her in your lives ... It was nice to hear the lovely stories that you all hold so dear. 

Married, 62 years, How Amazing - 11 Children - and so many grandchildren ... I so enjoyed reading all of your childhood memories I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers in the upcoming days and weeks ... 

Grandmothers are special people. I should know, my Mom and her Mom gives/gave us all the love we ever needed and it only continues. My Dad's Mom passed when he was only fourteen. This was a real loss. I so wish I could have met her. I also wish I would have had more time with my Mom's Mom. Just a few thoughts, I wanted to share with you that I think about - From time to time.

I am so sorry you experienced such griefFirst with your Nana and with the Boston Marathon Bombing in such close proximity. Yes, This event happened a bit too close for comfort. Bostonians are strong, we will rebuild. We will survive. We will come back braver. My heart goes out to the families that have been effected. Wishing them clarity and peace with time. Time heals. 

Thank you for your kind wishes regarding my new job. I am enjoying it, the people, the work. I love being in a large city, the skyscrapers all around, cafe's, and busy streets. I do like the sounds of the city, I have to say ... I think a trip to New York City is calling me ... It has been awhile ... 

We are planning a trip to Maine in May, our "Kick Off to Summer" trip that we so look forward to, each year. I will pack the camera, as always - To capture the beauty of nature! Any big plans for Summer?

Hoping you are well, My Dear Friend ...  Until Next Time! 
Much Love,
Kristine

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated
