Come for a drive

I zipped out today to run a couple of quick errands for my Mom. what a drive! So pretty that I felt compelled to stop along the way for pictures so I could share the beauty with you.
these overhanging trees are on nearly every neighborhood road ... they remind me of "Father of The Bride" ... LOVE that show! And LOVE these neighborhoods!

    I love mature neighbourhoods like that.. so much charcter. Perhaps because they have not been stripped of nauture like so many suburban developements. ... Hello to your parents ...HHL

    That is a nice drive. Nice drives are getting fewer and fewer, it seems.

    I like that your blog has quick snippets of inspiration :) It's kind of like an online and abridged version of Chicken Soup for the Soul!

    What a pretty drive! I love the Father of the Bride movies (all of them), they give you such a warm homey feel. Lovely trees, what a beautiful creation that God gave for us to enjoy.
    I hope your visit with your parents is very special and full of cherished memories for all of you.

    such a beautiful quote to remind you to enjoy the journey and not just the destination. Often the journey is twice as fun - well, sometimes anyway.

    Beautiful, so love the trees...I had a post on "Did you Miss It" about a small flower among the weeds...I think as we add those silver highlights to our hair we start to take time to see all the beauty around us...thanks for sharing the beauty you saw
