Another Pleasant Valley Sunday

Here I am taking the steering wheel, and feeling a little more joyful each day. As, I find my way on my journey to joy, I discover ways to help me steer in the right direction. And, lavender fields seem to bring out the best in me. The fields involve all of my senses, and leave me with the calmness and focus I need to face each day. Each day has still been a challenge. But, I am starting to feel more confident in facing the future alone. Because, I am not alone. But, focusing and feeling the beauty of life. It just makes me grateful for the abundance of life within my reach. This lavender field is my favorite, because I know Ellen Karcher (the owner). She came to April Cornell several times. She has twins, too about my children's age. It was so nice to take pictures in the field, make a lavender heart, chat with Ellen, smell the lavender.....But, most of all it was witnessing the children and parents dressed in their best for photographs. Even the rain rolling in couldn't ruin this night. I was excited to see how much it has grown since my last visit. And, I loved hearing the excitement of her store. It is full of all kinds of lavender products. The scones and chocolates are hard for her to keep in stock. So, if you need some calm in your life. Check out Pleasant Valley Lavender in Morganville. It is not too far up the road from Delicious Orchards.
