When I read your "answering post" , I ...Hey, Cathy!<br />When I read your "answering post" , I couldn't believe it! We're very familiar with parts of CT and have family and friends in Danbury. Before we moved to NJ, we lived in Westchester County! <br /><br />It's awesome that you've got a get-away planned! Lucky you! You'll come back refreshed and with wonderful pictures, I'm sure! Have a wonderful vacation! Hugs, Terri xoxoTerri Kahrshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01608275048785079353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-77232086272103600532009-05-20T18:18:14.252-04:002009-05-20T18:18:14.252-04:00Terri, we are so similar!

My emotions<br />are just part of who I am and it comes through all the time.<br />I didn't know you lived so close to NY. I used to live in CT about an hr north. LOVED IT. We used to take the train in alot. The theatre is great! And I love Central Park, as well as just walking around the city people watching.<br />As for the beach...I love almost VACANT beaches also! Love it in the late afternoons.<br />Not really into crowded beaches that's why I love Pensacola Beach and St. Augustine Beach.<br />Not real touristy! I grew up near VA Beach and<br />that to me was always a CITY and not a beach.<br />So we opted to head a little further south to the Outer Banks and I LOVE that area. It's grown tremendously since my YOUTH, but I still love going there. Again, heading further south of the touristy areas is really nice.<br />I do have plans for the long weekend. Actually taking off for St. Augustine on Sat. for the ENTIRE week.<br />Will post one more time before I take off.<br />xoxoxo<br />cathyCathy Spivey Mendolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05353775388613836052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-83908245050213820572009-05-20T11:10:48.367-04:002009-05-20T11:10:48.367-04:00Hey, Miss Cathy!
Don't know where this week is goi...Hey, Miss Cathy!<br />Don't know where this week is going! I read your beautiful post earlier this week, meant to post a comment, and just now got around to it! Where does the time go?!?<br /><br />Must say, you've created a beautiful, creative way to post a list! Fabulous pictures! I especially enjoyed the one of Rocky. Could it be because I adore terriers?!?! What would we do without our four-footed, furry friends??? <br /><br />The City . . . Love it too! Matter of fact, we can kind of see a just of hint of NYC as we're going down my "hill". (We're about 45 min. away.) I adore the architecture and the theater. One of my art assignments was to photograph different architectural elements and compare them to historic pieces (eg. gothic arches, etc.) We had a list of stuff to complete, so we drove into the City on a Sunday morning with the kids, and I photographed my heart out. There were columns, arches, pediments, buildings, etc. So memorable, and so much fun! It kind of sparked a new passion for photography.<br /><br />Having grown up not too far from the Jersey shore, I adore the ocean. But not during "the season". I love to go in the early spring and fall to walk or sit on the beach when no one's around - me and The Lord, so to speak. Love the sound and the power. Fabulous!<br /><br />Love it too, that you're a hopeless romantic! Unfortunately, so am I!!! (Obviously, "Gone With the Wind", "Roman Holiday", etc.) I have a feeling that we both wear our hearts on our sleeves at times.<br /><br />Thanks again for your generosity in sharing your beautiful post. I hope you're having a wonderful week! And . . . I hope you have something "fun" planned for the long weekend! Lots of Hugs, Terri xoxoTerri Kahrshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01608275048785079353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-53650556322054172192009-05-19T10:42:00.000-04:002009-05-19T10:42:00.000-04:00Thanks so much Marsha!

Sometimes I feel like such an oddity then I write something on my blog and find out that there are many more out there with the same thoughts, feelings or anxieties. It's so refreshing to know that I'm not alone.<br />Have a great week yourself.Cathy Spivey Mendolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05353775388613836052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-56187323304223828472009-05-18T19:36:00.000-04:002009-05-18T19:36:00.000-04:00Hi my dear Cathy!

Guess life is life if that makes sense - it is what it is and that is part of its beauty and challenge. <br /><br />I loved reading your six things. Here is how we're different. You celebrate so many wonderful things and moments and ideas that I am often bad about soaking in or enjoying. I worry too much and let too many things slip away. So I appreciated your six things even maybe a little more than others might. They are loud and poignant for me!<br /><br />Thanks for the long post on my blog. I love your long posts. I have so much on my mind this week I can't concentrate that well so I'm off to read and visit a bit more. I hope you have a lovely creative week!<br /><br />marshaTumble Fish Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548274352591532536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2407878081989312685.post-49632919408901590182009-05-18T14:51:00.000-04:002009-05-18T14:51:00.000-04:00Thanks Hayley!
