Reporting from DC

Hello all! I'm in Washington D.C. today. It's beautiful here, the trees are blooming, the sun is shining. It's one of those days that feels like Spring and Summer have merged into one state of being. I love it! Life is good. Dreams of Milan and Cinque Terre have resurfaced in my thoughts, and I see a beautiful journey soon to be traveled on the horizon. Next month I shall be traveling to Nashville. And soon my Dear Sister will be visiting me in Fort Lauderdale. Not to mention that my Brother is finally marrying the woman of my dreams. (I probably shouldn't be saying such things in a blog where everything can be taken the wrong way, but alas, today is a "Moon River" sort of day. And, "Anything Goes".) I hope each and every one of you reading this is having as good of a day as I am today. This is Sara signing off direct from the Nation's capitol. Until we meet again....

tee hee

You know what's funny? I check my own blog to see if anyone's posted a new entry. ;) Nope nobody did...I guess I'll have to.

Stepping Back in Time

Today I decided to take a walk down memory lane. Back to last summer, the places I used to frequent, the paths I used to walk each day when I first moved here to Fort Lauderdale. As I walked from Borders to the Galleria Mall I could see in the distance my old crash pad home. Tears filled my eyes as I realized that it all really happened. It's so strange how places can have so much impact on one's lives and yet we can completely forget them. I've been so busy working away that I really had forgotten how it all began for me down here in FLL.

Some highlights of the day:

~Talking tea with the gals at Teavana.
~Discussing espresso machines at Williams-Sonoma.
~Walking across the draw bridge leading to A1A, peering at the yachts and Water Taxi below.
~Watching a sea gull flying around with a Lance Armstrong "Live Strong" wristband in it's beak.
~Wading in the Atlantic, and spotting a beautiful sailboat on the horizon.
~Finding the Chai mix I'd been wanting to buy 75% off at Borders Cafe (Seattle's Best coming).
~Reading about Audrey Hepburn's life and admiring her thick eyebrows and fake eyelashes.
~Walking around all day with my water bottle and having almost everyone comment on how "smart" I was to be doing so.
