  6. Oh, Kim - it looks very special -- both peaceful and melancholy. I love the light in your photos, particularly that last one. It's like a blues song --

  13. I missed your last post! We are the same age and practically share the same birthday!! I didn't get a glorious weekend away in such a lovely place though ... but my kids took me out for a meal and I got some fab presents.

    A belated Happy Birthday Kimmie :D

  14. And of course I would have to come late to the party and I didn't even bring a gift! Love your mug. Like you, I'm not sure what it is, either.

    But I am sure I would love that Inn. Hauntingly beautiful, and ideal for this time of year.

    Hope your birthday was as great as YOU!!
