Vacation Photos

I finally got to take a vacation. Not a day off, but a whole FIVE days off in a row. LOL.

I hadn’t seen family and friends in the Ohio Valley since September 2021, and thoughts were pulling me toward them at the holidays. It was one of the nicest weeks I’ve spent in a long time: driving familiar roads, taking Olive to the park, visiting friends for dinner and breakfast, taking in the winter farmland scenery, not on a schedule, not checking work emails every half hour, relishing quiet time.

These photos are the black and white series, some of which I posted on Facebook and Instagram during the trip. There is another series using the Polaroid SX70, which will be a future post here. I’ll be making cards and photo prints of some of these images and selling them online.

This trip didn’t just bring me back to my relatives for the holidays, but it brought me back to my memories, to my photography, to my roots, to myself. Peace and much gratitude for all.
