Barnyard

It's official.  North Carolina had an entire day of sunshine!  As most of you on the east coast have been experiencing, we've had 18 days straight of rain, maybe not pouring, but it has rained for a least 30 minutes every day for three weeks. And then there finally came a day of sun!  I've been so lucky to be able to go home several times this month, probably more then I have in the past two years.  But spending time with my parents and getting to see my girlfriends who live distances away has lifted my spirits.  Home is a place a family and old friends and there aren't many times a year when we can all be together in Concord.

Nina, who I visited in Boston last year, was home for a family event and we were able to spend an afternoon lounging around her house before she headed back north.  The humid air and falling sunlight made for some glowing photos of her mother's garden and her father's horses.  I hope you can spend a few summer days at home with your loved ones this year!
