i love this guy

Farmer Brad Peacock

(I mean- how cute is he? He also happens to be my little brother, Brad:) I took this photo when we were goofing around at the West River Farmers Market in Vermont last year. Brad is a farmer. One among the many who work humbly and tirelessly to grow all that fresh delicious food that keeps us healthy. Check out this article he’s in!

Below is at the same farmers market last year. 3 of the 4 Peacock “kids.”  (Oldest ,DJ not pictured.) Youngest in the fam, Erin is on the right:

…she often works at Clear Brook Farm with Brad and the crew between her travels. Yay for amazing siblings! Yay for farmers! Three cheers and hats off to all the farmers out there who work their fingers to the bone to provide our communities with the best food possible.

Where’s your favorite farm?

it’s nice to share

If you’ve read here for any amount of time, you know that I love, love, love Roadtrip Nation. I randomly walked by a table in 2003 at my local VT bookstore, and this book caught my eye. I bought it was hooked: Instant superfan.

I’ve kept in touch and followed RTN for 10 years now, and met one of their Green RV crews in Chicago a couple summers ago which was a blast. Well, as usual the awesome peeps at RTN have been busy, still doing great work after all these years, and still growing. They’ve just launched a “Share Your Road” page on their website this week. (Of course I will submitting my road share.) In the meantime- you should share yours!

I love you Roadtrip nation! Keep doing good work.

How do you define your own road?

September 11, 2013 In Inspiration, Live the life you want to live

9/11

Remembering how lucky I am. Remembering who I love. Thankful for what I have, today and every day. Sending thoughts to anyone out there who has lost someone they love.

Whether it’s, September 11th, or August 18th, whatever day of the year might hit your heart harder than the rest of the 364 days, the reminder ultimately is- the time is now. Time is passing, live how you want, tell someone when you love them, spend time doing things that matter. Speak up, go, do it, get it, be it- because you just never know.

What are you waiting for?

my summer romance

I fell in love this summer. Seriously in love. My new main squeeze?

Little Moose lake in The Adirondacks.

*Wait- did you think I was talking about a guy? Sorry to confuse you. Although there was/are/is some/a special person/s in my life- I won’t divulge anything about that department right now. I’m all about being as transparent as Saran Wrap about most everything, just minus the man part. I have to keep something to myself! 🙂

Back to The Adirondacks:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

Hello lover.

I love you when you’re cloudy and misty during coffee time:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

…when you’re sunny during coffee time:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

…when your sunsets are imperfect and grey:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

…and when your sunsets are perfectly breathtaking:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

I love you when I look through your trees across the lake:

…when your big puffy clouds are above:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

…when the water is so still like a mirror, I almost can’t tell where the lake ends and the sky begins:

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

Adirondacks: Little Moose Lake

…and I love you for your views on a hike:

Yes, I am in love with The Adirondacks. They’ve certainly given my all-time favorite USA summer spot, The Finger Lakes Region, a run for their money.

Where did you fall in love this summer?
