Down By The River

06.08.11
Lately the beautiful scenery surrounding me has be in an abundance, and I’m very thankful for that.
Last summer when I was in Avon my cousin and I went to Starbucks and I tricked him into walking with me down by the river (he’s not one for nature walks). Well this year when I got to Avon the river walk was fresh in my mind and was one of the first places I wanted to go.

The river lines a walking path that goes through town. The spot I stopped at is near a ski resortand tons of people were out walking, running, biking, and even white water rafting by (if you look hard you can see a few of them in the river).
Being surrounded by such beautiful always seems sooth my soul. Being away from home, Scott, and all that I love is definitely hard at times, but seeing such beauty and taking in the calmness of a flowing river is definitely good for me. Free therapy is what I like to call it.

This week I’m going to be spending some time in Grand Junction, CO, stopping in at all my favorite spots and maybe even getting my shopping on. They have some amazing antique shops and coffee houses here, so I am sure my week will be plenty busy.

What are you up to this week? What kind of affect does nature have on you?
