A weekend away makes Alicia a happy girl
What do you get when you take a Type A city-girl-turned-suburban-housewife and stick her in the remote and quiet stillness of the mountains for 4 days?
You get a calm and happy Alicia with a renewed sense of purpose.
Here are some pics of the beauty I was surrounded by this past weekend.
North Georgia mountains
Country road
Pumpkins, rusty tractor, and black mare
I had the unexpected adventure of losing my car keys while walking through this field.
We found them the next day
Stillness
Bessie and Mabel
the cows were oh so puzzled by this strange woman and her camera, actually, so were some of the locals who asked me what in the world I was even taking pictures of
Pastoral
Bovine public displays of affection
Harriet having a healthy snack
A calflette snuggles up to her Mama
This made me miss my own little calflette who stayed behind at home with her Daddy
Happy Monday, everyone. Have a great start to the week!

Thanks for the lovely comments, everyone. Yes, it's amazing how a weekend away with great friends can totally make you feel recharged and renewed. I think I need to do this every 6 months. And how cute are those cows?
Thanks for dropping by. Have a great Tuesday!
