♥ On Saturday night, we finally carved our pumpkins. I took the above photos a little while before Ryan came home from work. After that, we had some dinner, and began carving. It didn’t take us very long. We had the original House On Haunted Hill playing in the background, and before the film was [...]

♥ I have been waiting for this movie to come out for such a long time. I’m so fascinated by the debate about Shakespeare. Did he write or did he not? Was he even a real human? What’s the story behind one of the greatest storytellers in history? Of course, I know he was real, [...]

♥ If you follow this road along the side of the mountain you’ll come across the loveliest little stream. I grew up on this road, about a mile + a half in the direction of civilization (sort of…), and when I used to run my five mile route, I’d often stop there to splash myself [...]
