Only in Bucks County: Color Fun 5K Run

    
Cross another one off the bucket list! 

I really didn't want to have to go into Philadelphia to do my first Color Run, so I was thrilled to find one nearby in Morrisville, Bucks County. On May 22, 2016 eight of us participated in the Color Fun Run. We were spread out over three generations actually... and as odd as this sounds to me, I was officially in the "grandparents" category.

We had a blast! A very colorful blast. The ColorFun 5K Run was an extremely well organized run/fast paced walk throughout a scenic residential area of  Morrisville. Even on an overcast day, the turnout was great. I had way more fun than I had imagined. It will definitely become an annual event!

And all of this colorful fun was for a good cause too. The ColorFun 5K Run/Walk was designed to raise money for Girl Scouts of Eastern Pennsylvania to travel the world and to help girl scouts who are traveling abroad this summer. The date for the 2017 Color Fun Run is already set and I hope to see you there.

Only in Bucks County: A Walk in the Woods

Some of you know

that I moved from Newtown Grant to suburban Yardley within the past few months.

With all moves... with all change... there is good and bad. So much has changed! There's a lot that's different for me now.
One of the positive things is that I've been making the time and will remain dedicated to going out walking, exploring and photographing again. I've gotten some freelance photo gigs and breathed some new life into my blog.
Even better is that I rescued a new dog, three year old Fergie, so I have someone to go out exploring with me.
And the best is that there are miles of woods right out my back door!
Every morning Fergie and I walk in these woods. It's good for us to breathe in the cool, fresh air together, and we get to enjoy the beauty and serenity that I crave... the peace, that for me; only nature has to offer.

Talk about color in unexpected places!!

~ Can you believe these photos were taken in the ice and cold of winter? ~

 

 

Wolf fur?  Dog?  Fox?  What do you think?

 

      
                                   Oh, also... I collect pine cones. 
                             But they have to be ones that I find,

                      so please don't start dropping them off at my front door :)
