The August Break…

Or for us, the August start up.  I was perusing Betz White’s blog today, and she was discussing her participation in The August Break.

Here’s the scoop: "Okay, here’s the plan for the August Break: you simply share one photo (or more!) per day on your blog – Monday to Friday, or every day. Or whenever you feel moved to share. Using any camera – DSLR, compact, Polaroid, Holga, iPhone (my choice), Instax, film or digital – with or without words – anything goes! – for the whole of August. No pressure – just looking at August through your camera lens as a way to be more present this summer. And to have a little break from the pressures and expectations of regular blogging."

Now, she’s using it as a break.  I’m thinking it’s not applicable as a break if one has only had like 3 blog posts in the last 6 months.  So, I’m thinking of it as more of a jump start…a way to show you some of the cool stuff we’ve been up to this summer; a way for us to reflect on the fun we’ve had and smile at some happy memories, and a way for me to feel less guilty about not wanting to spend time posting little ditties of words and instead spend time sewing for the baby boy who in just a few months will be met by loving arms here at the house where we live.

So, please to enjoy…

A day at Bay Beach.
