Hopscotch: July 4th Sky

July 4th Sky

A beautiful wave of clouds rolled in around 7:30 p.m. tonight. The sky had an iridescent glow that seemed to linger until the sun finally set. I snapped this photo from my front step. It's not fireworks, but it is kind of spectacular.

This is me

Hopscotch is defined as "a game in which a child tosses a stone into an area drawn on the ground and then hops through it and back to regain the stone" (wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn).

Hopscotch is in fact a way of life for me. Five years ago I met a man who would drastically change the course of my life. His job would require us to re-locate to a new country every two to four years. It is both an exciting and exhausting process, as anyone who has moved well knows. Our first posting overseas took us to Tokyo, Japan for three years and our second has brought us to Boston, MA. Each place has its own unique vibe and fabulous finds.

I connect the game of hopscotch to my life in that I do not know where the stone (my husband & I) will land next. We toss out ideas, feeders and hope to find a spot that will be a good fit for both of us.

In this blog I want to share with readers the places, people and things that inspire me in my ever-changing environments.
