#misc goods

Earliest this week, I had the best day ever with the best new and old friends, Monica, Asher and Taylor at Monica's cabin in Bells Bend, Tennessee.

We first went on a hike in the woods at Beaman Park, continued by a spontaneous un-ending chill time at Monica's cabin, which included coffee, avocado toast with J.Q. Dickinson Salt (you must taste it - buy now), playing Spades with Misc Goods beautiful deck of cards, photo capturing, and continued reflection and good conversation (and much fun with Monica's dog, River). 

I felt as if I were in a Kinfolk Magazine feature. That day is how I want to live everyday, but most of the time it's difficult to actually see into reality, though I'm actively trying to pursue a life centered around people, good and healthful food, natural environments and simple living. It's possible, but there will always be those days when that rotten banana is sitting on a dirty plate in the floor of my car, my clothing is way over due for a good wash, and I've got an overloaded list of things I must complete to continue making a living wage (normal living).

I'm so grateful for these opportunities to have a full day like I had earlier this week. A day full of beautiful things, photo adventures, lots of room to be quiet and enjoy good company; more room to sit back with conversation with great friends, actually looking them in the eye than the screen of my iPhone. I actually went the whole day capturing photos and didn't post even one until later than night (didn't even cross my mind). That's when you know it was a great day.

I'm grateful for friends, freedom, and this God-given earth that consistently inspires in it's array of gifts: nature, food, coffee (thanks Crema!) and great people. 

This day was truly heavenly, experienced here on earth - an idea I actively am trying to embrace each day.

I'm practically here every day (I'm actually here right now posting this blog update). Make sure to visit them! You won't regret it. (Monica can also serve you, since she's a barista there).
