new project: arabiascape
About two years ago, I had crossed enough items off of my forever long to do list that I could start taking Phelix out to hike at Davidson-Arabia. Our once a week hikes grew into twice or thrice a week hikes, time and weather permitting. I feel so very much alive when I’m there in
arabia mountain – 10 nov 2016
Phelix and I went off to our happy place again today. This time we went “off trail” a bit more that usual in order to try to get a better feel for how everything fits together.

A cool morning at long last. Phelix and I left home by 7am, but we really should have left earlier – I kept waiting for signs of sunrise, but the clouds deceived me. We spent the most lovely two hours hiking at Arabia; our happy place. It has been three months since we were able

Even if I’m stuck here at home keeping the homefires stoked, I love when we can slip away for a few hours. And one of my go-to places is Arabia Mountain. The girls balk at hiking for the most part, but Arabia Mountain? They love it … As does the puppy-duppy. So last weekend, when

Generally, when people think of stone outcrops in Atlanta, they think of Stone Mountain. But our favorite outcrop? Much less famous, but one of our favorite places to go, is the Davidson-Arabia Nature Preserve. While my favorite time to go is during the spring when the mountain looks like a magical wonderland, I love to

Today, not only did the girls and I get in a nice hike at Arabia Mountain, but Camille also helped me straighten out my Instagram issues. Hopefully, I’ll start using it a little more now!!

As I walked out the door to head down to the lake to welcome the sun back from the longest night, I immediately had to strip off some layers. For pre-dawn on December 22nd, it sure was hot and humid!! I had planned on taking the girls to the High Museum that morning, but after
