Southern Comfort Zone

So it's the wrap up of week five here! It's Father's Day and it feels as if Mother's Day was just yesterday and I was sitting at Chesapeake's with my family eating shrimp and pasta. I know that in life that nothing is accidental but happens for a reason. This internship has been one of those experiences that I needed to pursue, take advantage of, learn from it, and know that it is all part of my journey. I have come to the realization that I will be cutting my time here in Vermont short and instead of staying here for six months then I am coming home in August which totals to a three month stay instead. Many factors have led me to make this decision but those explanations will come at a later date! Some of my reasons include ensuring I graduate on time, making sure I keep scholarships, and possibly change up my major and minor. So many new things on the horizon and I have this internship to thank for it. Small post this week but definitely shared some big news. Knowing this, I will be back in the south in August!

Finally Some Foliage

Been away from home for a month now and apparently my sister Alissa still expects me to walk in the door any second and forgets I'm not going to anytime soon... I think in a weird way that makes me both happy and sad. Sad because I know that I miss everyone and home so much and wish I was walking into my house tomorrow, but happy because I know that I have people that miss my presence back  home and how they look forward to my arrival. (This probably sounds so dramatic considering I'm not going to be gone for that long in the end...) I love the show Little People, Big World and I follow Jeremy Roloff on Instagram and Twitter. A couple months back he said, "I like it because there is nothing like returning home. You can't return unless you leave, so you leave to miss, and you miss to come back." I knew as soon as I read it that I liked the quote, but now I can grasp it. No, I am not a jet setter or frequent traveler but the quote is spot on. It has easily become one of my favorite quotes while I've been away.

Now, the moment you've all been waiting for! I am no photographer, photo editor, photoshop extraordinaire, or artist of any sort. So with that being said, these upcoming photos are just simply ones I took at 8:30 one night to capture the basics of the farm. I already know they won't do this property and the horses justice, but it's worth a shot. Now I need y'all to close your eyes and prepare yourselves!
Here we go...

The road leading into the farm.

 (So... that was only three photos. I had some major problems uploading photos and this is where I was stopped. This is also why this post is a week late. I shall try again later, so my apologies. I guess this was only a teaser post...)

Side note: Whether or not the title of this blog makes sense will most likely depend on the person, but it works for me. I started to call it "Finally Some Photos" but then I started to realize how green and springy it looks around the farm and found the new title more appropriate.
