River, River of Love so Wide.

This is one of my favorite places to get away from it all. Up until recently the river has run dry. The other night I convinced some friends to go on a drive, we ended up here. People make fun of me for my love of stars, but they don't seem to understand that they are few and far between in my town, the light capital of the world. We beat out the clouds the other night and got to look up at stars. I looked out the car window, and then immediately pulled over. It was nice, even if just for a few freezing minutes (48 probably not freezing to the rest of the world, but I am a Southern California girl) to be out in the middle of nowhere in complete darkness, and be able to look up at a speckled sky. While on the side of the road, I heard the river running...

The song Big Wide River of Love came to mind.
I'd like to introduce you to Petunia and the Vipers!

Indian Summer



This is one of my favorite dresses, and I will say that about each and everyone.
Dress hand-crafted by Mr. Tiny of Mr. Tiny's Southside Market and The Wacky Tacky Blog.
Belt and shoes thrifted.
The combs in my hair belonged to my Great Aunt Billie.

Turtles are some of my favorite animals because they are low maintenance and harmless. One day I want to have a tortoise named Lollipop. This turtle belongs to my friend Amber Foxx. What a lucky duck that Foxx is for having such a nice turtle. And I ain't lion.
