Using the generous gifts I received for my recent graduation, I bought a camera, and took it with me on a mini getaway to the woods [Shenandoah in Virginia]. There was no phone reception, i.e., no email, social media, calling + texting – basically a dream come true for introvert me. Here’s the product, let me know if you have any tips, advice, comments as I delve into amateur photography.
our humble abode:
the Little Bitty cabin [its actual name] was so cozy. if you know me, you know that I love miniature things.the kitchen had everything we needed for delicious meals.
the mighty mountains:
signage
leisure:
at the stableintroducing myself to Leah, my horse for the 1.5 hour ride. this was my first time and I was nervous.getting strapped in and saddled up.and we’re off. about 10 minutes into it, I felt comfortable and relaxed.I survived my first horse riding experience 😀hammock life.fishing at the pond, not that we actually caught anything.
