Everything is in full bloom, the greens are deep and warm days force New Yorkers' pace to slow. Autumn, with its brilliant hues, is usually the favorite season of upstaters. But I love July and August. I drink it all in and try to save the essence for the long winters.Kristien62https://www.blogger.com/profile/04141776821818167047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-77411760931930617782012-07-29T04:14:24.800-07:002012-07-29T04:14:24.800-07:00I love my new home as we moved into the Barn in Wi...I love my new home as we moved into the Barn in Winter am enjoying each new season,seeing where the light flows through the open spaces,before deciding on new furnishings......<br /><br />Beautiful white hydrangeas,white is so calming.You deserve your long, slow relaxing days.IdaJudith https://www.blogger.com/profile/03634258386057489997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-16615594229753913002012-07-28T21:54:37.227-07:002012-07-28T21:54:37.227-07:00Well, one of the reasons I like your blog is the c...Well, one of the reasons I like your blog is the calm spirit I almost invariably find here.

Retirement has been wonderful to me, although I loved my years of work in a university setting. But it's the pace of life, the reflective times, the complete unwinding of stresses and strains that mean so much. Of course, things get hectic sometimes, but I never let them overtake me. I'm not vegetating at all, reading, working with my artist husband on a book, gardening, cooking, hiking, musical events. But time has slowed down and that's the beauty part.Swissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07401962870620859831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-7490250866797909762012-07-27T10:16:29.684-07:002012-07-27T10:16:29.684-07:00I'm so happy at home too, we had plans to go a...I'm so happy at home too, we had plans to go abroad again in September, but we've had two holidays this year and I am such a home bird.<br /><br />Enjoy your weekend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
