Where Nature is Nice

This year starts the eighth year of living in Charlotte. The one thing I enjoy everyday here is the nature. Matt and I talk often about where else in the United States we would want to live. We have not come up with a place yet but I am sure we will eventually. When I think about what I will miss about Charlotte if we do move away it’s the nature. I often chuckle at the city’s slogan “Charlotte’s Got a Lot” because I don’t think it does, I have found it to be just one big suburb with lot’s of nature and endless options for grocery stores.

Every So Often

Every so often we see Blue Jays in our front yard and it never gets old. They are such a shy, beautiful bird. Whenever we see one we drop what we are doing to just stare at them until they fly away It’s kind of funny because they have a not so pretty call. I drew one in my sketch book a while ago and I have been wanting to try and draw one again. We will see there is so much to draw and so little time.
