I absolutely adored #amreading "Magic, Maps, and Mischief" by @davidgreenwriter.bsky.social.

All I want to do now is have a cup of tea, look at maps, and think about My Heart's Desire (and pet an owl, hang out with my friends, and go to a bookstore).

I love a #book that makes me smile while I'm #amreading it, then frown because I've finished it. 💙📚

Today, I am #grateful for public parks.
Went to my favorite #park today; being in nature, hearing the birds sing, and squirrels playing is always good for my soul.

Sometimes, you just have to go outside, feel the grass under your feet, and get close to #nature. #photography

Also in Arlington, Texas.

Arlington came out for #NoKings day.
Even a few sprinkles didn't keep us away or send us home early.

This is the #Halloween house in my neighborhood.

They start decorating at the beginning of October & keep adding right up to the big night.

As I was walking by, the homeowner was unpacking her new decoration purchases & she gave me permission to take this pic of one of the newest additions.

Meet Heidi.

She's beautiful (hard to get a good pic at the event) & so sweet & would love to find her humans.

If you're in #DFW & looking for a new best friend, consider Heidi--or one of her shelter mates.

They're available here:
