I do not believe this to be true. When my parents moved to Scandia there were two established families down the country dirt road from us. One family, older than my parents, had a set of boys younger than my brother and I. The couple across the road, my parent’s age, had a girl and […]

October 1st – New Ritual
Silence is required, but so are rituals and here’s this months inspiration…
Wanderlust Festival – Part One
The low down on the Wanderlust Festivals. Part one – getting there and swag.
Rituals & Routines
Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts on the importance of rituals. It’s intriguing. It got me thinking, what are my rituals and how often do I stick to them. * * * When I was in my late teens and early twenties, […]

#TeamErin
