It often takes people many decades to realize - if they ever do - that hope is so much more than just a literal house. A city as a whole, a beach, a tree fort, even a sidewalk can all reverberate with a sense of home and cause great longing if we move away from their presence. For me one such city will always be Calgary, Alberta. As I'm fond of saying, the love I have for that place is akin to that I feel for the humans I adore and it (Calgary) will forever feel like home to me (even though I only lived there for a little over two years).<br /><br />♥ JessicaJessica Cangianohttps://www.etsy.com/shop/ChronicallyVintagenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-10397746508739732462014-11-08T13:29:03.506-06:002014-11-08T13:29:03.506-06:00Loving all those photos.

You aren't the only one who takes comfort in normalcy, because I'm guilty of the exact same thing. It's funny that you mention this I've read something recently that talks a bit about being tied down to things that we consider normal--like living in a house, or the clothes we wear, etc. And as much as I know I couldn't stand just 'drifting' about and not having a permanent home, it does seem idyllic sometimes to just travel and see things with people that make us feel at home. Your posts are so wonderful and you're such an inspiration!Tessie Jaynehttp://knoxmysox.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-38443132097760128882014-11-07T18:15:38.152-06:002014-11-07T18:15:38.152-06:00I've always liked the idea of just picking up ...I've always liked the idea of just picking up and traveling somewhere, not really knowing what lies ahead. It's fun to dream about, but it's something else to actually do it and embrace all the unknowns. All your photos are so pretty and really like the fourth to last one!Sarahhttp://lostvestige.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-76123177083860673692014-11-07T17:29:45.941-06:002014-11-07T17:29:45.941-06:00I think that perhaps I need to take a leaf out of ...I think that perhaps I need to take a leaf out of your book! I'll keep your words in mind for the changes that I myself am experiencing! And as always, such lovely pictures. I really love the one fourth from the bottom.

You are setting an example for each and every one of us to follow, dear girl. You have achieved a level of aliveness that few people attain and I hope you will keep it always. The things you are thinking and feeling are reflected in the random pictures you show us week by week. Yours is some of the best photography on the web and I love how your pictures burst with color and life. The one showing the children climbing the bales of hay resonates most with me because it brings back happy memories of my childhood. My aunt and uncle had a farm and I visited my cousins there often. We loved to play in the barn, climb hay bales and pretend they were a fort, swing on a rope and drop into a haystack. Those were some of the best days of my life. Thank you for reminding me of them.<br /><br /><br />Please hug little fur ball Daisy and have a safe and happy weekend, dear friend Abigail!Shady Del Knighthttp://www.shadydell.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909657104905415896.post-62474206072394882272014-11-07T13:10:01.608-06:002014-11-07T13:10:01.608-06:00I do love the interior of a barn.
