Day 5. A day in Aveiro, Portugal

There's little need to hire a car whilst staying in Porto as there are numerous interesting places to visit which are easily accessible by train.  So, for the third morning in succession we took the now familiar route to the São Bento station, this time for a train to Aveiro.  Return fares are priced at €7.60 with a journey time of 80 minutes. Averio's old station stands next to the one we had just arrived at and shouldn't be overlooked.  It was opened in 1916 and its exquisite blue tiled panels known as azulejos depict traditional scenes from Aveiro and…

Being Too Busy

Although I'm still dreaming about vibrant fall colors, Al and I have been back in the Valley of the Sun (Phoenix, Arizona) for a little over a month now. I can't figure out where the time has gone. Well actually, I do know ... our days have been filled with predominantly obligations sprinkled in with a little fun here and there. I wish it were the other way around. You know, more fun and fewer obligations. Ah, such is life! Both trucks have been in the shop for routine maintenance and then some. My little red Toyota Tacoma was in…

Colors Of Love

It is with great relief I am back in my comfort zone, believe me. When my Inner Guidance kept me awake one night with me saying "no" to what I was being asked to do, I finally relented and agreed to do it. This "task" terrified me but I overcame that terror in ways I am only now beginning to understand. My heartfelt passion for our country's fight for freedom birthing over these past months only intensified as a result. It is almost Thanksgiving here in the USA. All of us and yes I am saying all of us, have…

Mental Health Matters: Triggered (Part III)

As a writer, I’d love to end the story with, and I never returned. As a person showing up in authentic spaces, I've created for myself, I want to tell the rest of the truth. Of course, I returned. I had to get my purse. But I didn’t want to. That evening, I’d stayed up well past midnight journaling: writing and processing, processing and writing. It had worked when my father died, so perhaps it would work with this situation. I wrote until my eyes were heavy. Part I of this series is the result. “I don’t belong here,” I…

Remembering the Magic

‘Welcome back to Regional Victoria’ the sign read. From the passenger seat I turned to hubby and excitedly said, “It’s so good to be back”. We’re driving into the High Country, one of my favourite parts of Victoria. I’ve written countless articles on this area, on the vibrant colours, bike tracks and gourmet produce. And, of course, the big views. But this time I’m not here for the stories. Lockdown is finally over and we’re free to travel beyond 25kms. We’re free to see our daughter again, to go camping and, miraculously, we get to do all of this, on…

Friendly Friday Photo Challenge - Whilst Walking

“Photography helps people to see” ~Berenice Abbott Janeluriephotography The above quote is taken from Jane's blog, where you will find photographs that are something special. The natural world is displayed in its incredible beauty by Jane's skill, as a photographer. It is a delight to walk in forested or rural areas, in cool, shady glades, in big sky country of cattle grazing lands or scenic vistas away from the inner city. Use arrows to see more images below. Whilst walking with my own camera and observing the world, I try to channel that atmosphere that Jane creates, in her photography. “Pay…

5 Thanksgiving side dishes that you must try

With only a few days until Thanksgiving (26 November), everyone who is celebrating, I believe have decided the menu already. But let's be honest. Thanksgiving is not all about the turkey. The turkey without the side dishes would be just a simple turkey. In our country we celebrate the harvest season, we don't have Thanksgiving day, but I am grateful for everything I have: for health, for love, for food, for a roof above my head and in my little I try as much as I can to enjoy life and be happy. I know this year was a year…
