Slaughterville Canyon

 Sweater: Lane Bryant
Shoes: Ariat
The weather was gorgeous when I was in California for Christmas. Sunny and 60s every day. What a nice break it was from the below 0 temperatures of Wisconsin in winter. I took advantage of it & tried to soak in as much sun as possible. I sat outside in Super Boo's parent's lovely backyard to put on my make-up & enjoy the smoky smell in the air that reminded me of campfires. 
The day after Christmas, S. Boo & I took a drive down an unpaved backroad...descending down the face of a butte going into a canyon...Slaughterville Canyon. What a great name! We pulled over when we saw that gorgeous tree in the second shot & also discovered a waterfall. 
Super Boo is a great driver, so I know that even when he takes risks, I am safe. I screamed joyously as we careened down the unpaved road. It was beautiful & fun. As we traveled back up to his parent's house, the road became paved & I thought the fun part was over. But the twisty turn-y paved road was intended for 2-way traffic on a space only as wide as a single vehicle. We could often not see very much ahead of us because the road was mostly curves. I wanted to take video of how fun/scary it was, but I was too busy being terrified. And having fun.

    1. Hi Kim! Thanks for commenting. I LOVE my Enwrapture Vintage silk saris, I have about 50 of them! I hope you like yours! The best way to get them is to get a bunch of friends together and buy in bulk...they are soooo much cheaper that way. Perhaps someday I will post here to see if people are interested & do a group order *smile*.
