The Sunday Creative - Nostalgia

Maegan couldn't have picked a more perfect prompt for me this week.  This is my last full week in Kentucky and as I wrap up the project I've been working on, pack and close up my apartment I've been filled with nostalgia.  I've loved living here this year.  I've met some incredible people and been charmed by the beauty of the surrounding area.

I'm posting two of my favorite photos of the Kentucky Horse Park after I've spent some time editing them.  I'm loving the use of actions and textures, it gives me the ability to take my photos in fun new directions and makes me feel even more like an artist.  (For those of you who care, I used Pioneer Woman's Heartland Action and Kim Klassen's Extreme Grunge texture.)

One of my favorite artists from Kentucky - Dawn Landes (thanks Cindy for the introduction to her music.)

Straight Line to Lexington

I'm packing a suitcase again - I keep thinking that as often as I do this I'd have some sort of special system worked out so it wouldn't take so long, or I wouldn't dread it so much.  But no matter how much I travel, I hate packing.

In a few hours I'll be saying goodbye to my second to last visit to Delhi (for the foreseeable future at least.) This trip is a little different because instead of heading home, I'm headed straight to Lexington.  Back to that little apartment that was just starting to feel like home.  

I'm looking forward to spring in Kentucky - can't wait to see the grass turning green.  To explore some of the surrounding towns and to catch up with some new friends.

While I finish packing, take a listen to one of my favorite new artists - she's from Kentucky - and a new discovery thanks to Cindy, a fellow blogger who is a talented photographer and has great taste in music.
