I took a week off from RL and escaped to one of my favorite places. The house that I stayed in inspired me beyond words – to the point where I left with more clarity than ever on how I want to live my life.

Brief escape to Shenandoah National Park

This past Sunday, my daughter and I escaped to one of the most beautiful places on earth. We talked, walked, picnic’d on million-year-old rocks, sang songs, and layed in the grass under the cool sky.

My best friend and I recently spent the night at the 1804 Inn at Barboursville Vineyards. Located about 20 minutes north of Charlottesville, the inn and its surroundings are steeped in history – and beauty. Needless to say, it was VERY difficult to leave.
