I love

On my original blog, “The Grains of Paradise @ Blogspot” I had a series of posts called, “I Love”. This was a series of snapshots that I had taken over the week ( or over a month ) that really spoke to me but didn’t necessarily make it into a regular blog post, Facebook update ( or nowadays ) an Instagram post. Honestly, there is no rhyme or reason with these shots. But, that’s exactly the point. I really look forward to doing these “I Love” posts once again.

Note: I’m off to California in a couple of days for vacation so my posts may be a bit sporadic over the next week or so. Hopefully, I’ll be returning home with some fun content to share. I’ll be posting on Instagram while I’m in California if you would like to follow our adventures. @mauimandy
