Challenge your body by trying a new sport or exercise class. Even if you're a dedicated runner or live for your circuit training, a new activity is sure to work your muscles in a new way and "shock" your body into working harder.

Happy Mothers Day

Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: “Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.” Proverbs 31:25-30

It's an act that every little boy hates.

A Mayor's Eye For Art

Ridgeway, SC is a small town with a huge love of arts. Each year on the first weekend (rain or shine) this town goes all out for the local artist. During the fall Pig on The Ridge draws cookers and crafts. The arts council of the own strives to keep this strong with heavy support from the town’s mayor. Mayor Charlene N. Herring lives among art in a historical house right in the heart of the town. At first glance you know you are in a place that does not care about time. It looks as good as it has ever looked. Inside is even more pleasing to the eyes. Art is everywhere.

My wife had a chance to visit and enjoy trip into a Home and Garden ready home. Enjoy a few glimpses of the beautiful home of the Mayor.

 

 

What  nice looking wall ;)
