About Town

A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine.

So this is my new town.  I know, I know, perhaps it doesn't look like much of a town but rather more like a quaint little valley nestled cozily between the mountains.  Nonetheless, it's going to be home to me real soon.  On this afternoon Al and I ventured an hour and a half north to our new town to meet up with some friends for a band practice.  We were lucky enough to get a little band together and have the opportunity to play in the town's summer festival... today actually.  I couldn't be more excited and nervous but more excited.  Wish me luck darlings!  I must be off for now as the ivories are calling me.

Much love,

    Aww it looks lovely! I grew up in a city and now I love being just outside of the city, in a little town surrounded by nature! It makes it easy to go for amazing walks! In cute dresses! :) Zoë x

    The one before last is super, I love the effect created :) I used to have an obsession with doing this a few years ago and would do it with every photo! It looks best if it is just the one like you have done as it creates much more of a better effect :)
    Beautiful outfit <3

    What a beautiful new place to live! It's so green there, it's unreal! I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding gorgeous places to take pictures there. This post is proof of that. I love the bright floral pattern of your dress, and the flower crown is nymph-like.
