It's time to celebrate small things again. To be part of this blog hop, all you have to do is visit the Celebrate page on Lexa's Blog for the rules, and then post every Friday about something you're grateful for that week. It can be about writing or family or school or general life. (Originated by VikLit) Two wonderful co-hosts of Celebrate the Small Things are: L.G. Keltner @ Writing Off The Edge and Katie @ TheCyborgMom
What am I celebrating today? Long walks in the countryside. Villages are close enough that you can walk from one to another and see sheep and cattle on the way. Yesterday we encountered some of our favorite people, Pepe and Melucha, from a nearby village. Pepe introduced us to his brother, who invited us into the bodega for a glass of home-made wine. His wife brought us bread and cheese. It was a bright, sunny day, with a soft breeze, and we stood and talked awhile, enjoying their gracious hospitality. These are memories I will never forget. They will be with me forever.
How about you? Do you enjoy long walks? What is your favorite snack?
