Nature in the City Getaway

It's been a wild and crazy week and it's time for a little getaway.  The little man and I are heading for the city.  We'll be staying with a dear friend who I'll pal around with while the young ones attend a day camp full of nature and fun.  Isn't it funny that we're going to the city for a nature camp? 

Mr. Fuji will be accompanying me and I hope for some cooler mornings and evenings for some fun photo sessions. I'm looking forward to lots of girl talk, eating out as often as possible, and the change of scenery. 

Have a wonderful weekend and pray for rain!

Realization

I just realized today is Wednesday and I posted for Mosaic Monday on Tuesday.  Holiday Mondays really confuse me.  I keep forgetting that tomorrow is Thursday and I'm off for a few days, the country mouse visiting the city friend.

I hope the weather takes a cooler turn, so we can wander the streets and visit sites I know, but miss.  Losing myself in the beauty of art renews my spirit and inspires, so maybe we'll find time to visit the Toledo Art Museum.  I can never say no to the Toledo Botanical Garden.  Perhaps we'll search for a new bistro or coffee shop for talking while creamy latte or plain ole java cools in our mugs. I'm always up for heading downtown to search for photo ops and city energy. 

I may mention heading to Perrysburg and The Ribbonry, a wonderful place with sumptuous ribbons from France.  Or...we could just talk on MJ's deck, catching up, and sharing secrets before walking about her yard with camera in hand ready to snap a photo of a flower, a bird, a butterfly, or her new companion, Ayla.   

Yes, I need this snippet of a getaway for peace of mind.  The well needs water and I'm going to dance in the rain for a few days. 

Have a wonderful weekend, friends!
