Wow. We went to the Shelton Vineyards and Winery this afternoon to enjoy some great weather, lovely views, and good ole Carolina blue grass music. My nephew's step-father is playing in a blue grass band, and they had not seen each other in about 10 years. It was a wonderful reunion, and the kids (all five of them) had a blast. Hay ride, feeding fish, listening to great music, running in the grass, looking at the old tractors, it was a blast!
In the process, I met several people who are amazing artists. Who knew that people made candles out of soy oil? (I sure didn't) - and some amazing painted glassware, kind of stained glass style. Beautiful hand crafted knitwork and crochet, hand crafted jewelry and woodwork. Wow! I think I'll be able to hook some of these wonderful vendors up with people who have shops and take consignment work. And maybe I can help someone get set up for full time self employment!
And I met a couple of groups that are doing fundraising and I gave them my contact info.
And we bought two huge boxes of apples, Golden Delicious and Winesap. Yummy!
The moral, take time out for fun and you will still make a difference in people's lives!
Smile and bring some joy to someone else today!
joyfully!
