While my favorite season is fall, I am happy that summer is finally here. The sun shinning brightly, birds signing and waking in the morning...and we can finally wear capri's and sandals! I love it!
I love summer, because everything is vibrant once again. The trees are richly green, flowers pop with reds, violets and yellows. Its fabulous to simply take a walk and be in tune with nature. Speaking of nature, I've recently missed the peace and quiet of a forest. Living in the suburbia of Chicago allows me to be relatively close to a forest (actually I can see it outside my balcony!). So I've hopped on my bike, and taken rides through the forest. Its so relaxing! Its quiet... almost too quiet. At first I thought to myself, darn, I should have brought my ipod with me. Then I realized further into the ride, I dont need an ipod, I need quiet and nature. Living in an urban setting, makes you forget how many different species of birds there are, how unique their calls and tweets are. Even something so simple, as the sound of the wind blowing leaves on trees is mesmerizing. I'm glad I got back with nature. Hopefully, on a future ride, I'll be able to take my camera to snap a few picutres of nature at its best.
With the nature theme, I'm going to have a few new additions to my Etsy shop soon. I've designed some earrings with these fabulous freshwater pearls (seriously, the luster on them is phenomenal!). Its a different spin on my creations, hope you'll like them.
