Taken several years ago at Hurricane Ridge, on the Washington Peninsula.
One of my favorite places on earth.
Thanks to the generosity of Maegan, I have a very special giveaway for you today - a slot in May's Creativity Bootcamp course. So, if you haven't already signed up, here is your chance!
To win, leave a comment on this post before the end of day Wednesday. I'll announce the lucky winner on Friday.
I spent the weekend in Seattle (my former, and much missed home.) I went to some of my favorite spots (Lincoln Park, Alki Beach, Discovery Park, Pike Place, the Waterfront, the Locks and Golden Gardens) and ate at some of my favorite restaurants (Etta's, Anthony's, Wild Ginger and West 5.) I'm still in recovery mode after the rush of fitting everything in!
Saturday was glorious in Seattle and I wanted to be out on the water, so I hopped the ferry to Bremerton. Two hours on the water to relax and marvel at the beauty all around - and as a bonus we had a clear view of the Olympic Range and Mount Rainer. While I rode, I listened to Ingrid Michaelson (and Adele, Band of Horses and Ryan Bingham.) Her Keep Breathing
came on and I kept playing it over and over. I think we've all had days where the most important thing we can do is keep breathing and moving forward, with faith that tomorrow will be better.Don't forget to leave a comment so you'll be entered in the drawing for Creativity Bootcamp! Pin It
