Colorful King

Bluesteins, King St., Charleston, S.C.
No wonder we have so many artists in Charleston. How can anyone resist these colors? Beautiful.

Sooooo.........I have a pile of clothes thrown in the general direction of my suitcase because (insert drum roll here..) I am flying to Iceland tomorrow afternoon. How exciting is that?

I just finished a warm humid walk and before you know it I will be in crisp cool weather. It is so warm in Charleston I've been holding up long sleeve shirts as if they are foreign objects and thinking, "Does anyone really wear these things?" Fun times ahead kids. Volcanoes, hot springs and furry ponies, oh my!

Sure, just drop the Iceland bomb on us and go running off.... seriously?!?! Why are you going? Where are you going? With whom are you going? What was the impetus, what is the plan, INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW!!!! 8-)

Just me! I am taking off. I always love having an adventure to look forward to. I am joining a small group and circling the island staying at inns and B & B's and farmhouses and checking the place out. It feels unbelievable.

Iceland is green, Greenland is icy, go figure.

Yes, this is a lovely, colorful facade.

Iceland? I didn't see that coming! Have a good trip.

Yay! Cant recall when I last slept but spent the day marching all over Reykjavik. Cool and crisp with a wild wind on the ocean. Loving it and start my adventure in the morning.
